MARC recordLaboratory experiments on the formation of solar radiation induced melt layers in dry snow / Norbert Beck, Dietmar Wagenbach, Karl Otto Münnich.
| Title: | Laboratory experiments on the formation of solar radiation induced melt layers in dry snow / Norbert Beck, Dietmar Wagenbach, Karl Otto Münnich. |
| Author(s): | Beck, Norbert. Wagenbach, Dietmar. Münnich, Karl Otto. |
| Date: | 1988. |
| In: | Zeitschrift für Gletscherkunde und Glazialgeologie. (1988.), Vol. 24(1) (1988) |
| Abstract: | Ice layers were produced in wind tunnel under controlled conditions. Snow surface temperature resulting in each individual experiment turned out to be useful parameter to describe onset of melting. Very low wind velocities favour formation of ice layers. Isotope depth profiles show enrichment of heavy isotopes in uppermost snow layer; this is small compared with typical seasonal variation in snow input under natural conditions. |
| Notes: | Zeitschrift für Gletscherkunde und Glazialgeologie. Vol. 24(1) :31-40 (1988). |
| Keywords: | 551.578.463 -- Snow cover, firnification. E10 -- Glaciology: snow and avalanches. |
