Main publication details
MARC recordSnow compaction effects on nighttime freezing / Richard Kattelmann.
| Title: | Snow compaction effects on nighttime freezing / Richard Kattelmann. |
| Author(s): | Kattelmann, Richard. |
| Date: | 1986. |
| Publisher: | Spokane, WA: Western Snow Conference |
| In: | Western Snow Conference. Proceedings. (1986.), Vol. 54 (1986) |
| Abstract: | Night-time freezing depths of artificially compacted and natural snow were measured at two sites in Sierra Nevada Mountains, California. Degree of nocturnal refreezing of snowpack affects timing of meltwater release on following day and may account for observed differences in runoff from natural and compacted snow. Compacted snow froze 13 cm deeper than natural snow. |
| Notes: | Western Snow Conference. Proceedings. Vol. 54 :168-171 (1986). |
