The strength of snow in compression / Lorne W. Gold.
Title: | The strength of snow in compression / Lorne W. Gold. |
Author(s): | Gold, Lorne W. |
Date: | 1956. |
In: | Journal of Glaciology. (1956.), Vol. 2(20) (1956) |
Abstract: | Hardness observations found to depend on snow density, temperature and crystal size. Strength is highly variable, and variability is attributed to unstable bonding between individual snow grains. |
Notes: | Journal of Glaciology. Vol. 2(20) :719-725 (1956). German summary. Canada. National Research Council. Division of Building Research. Research Paper 29. NRC 3930. |
