Physical Properties of Snow
As demonstrated in the previous chapter, snow interacts strongly with the global climate system, both influencing and forming as a result of this system. The following chapters discuss the interaction of snow with the chemical and biological systems. This chapter discusses the physical properties of snow as the habitat and regulator of the snow ecosystem. In this sense, the physical snow cover ...
متن کاملFRACTAL PROPERTIES OF TEMPERATlTRE FLUCTUATIONS IN THE CONVECTIVE SURFACE LAYER
Temperature fluctuations in a convective surface layer were investigated. Box counting analysis was performed to investigate fractal properties of surfaces of constant temperature and was performed on sets of points obtained by setting thresholds on detrended records. Results indicate that surfaces of constant temperature have fractal properties for thresholds far from the mean. Estimated fract...

متن کاملK+-hydration in a low-energy two-dimensional wetting layer on the basal surface of muscovite.
Density Functional Theory points to a key role of K(+) solvation in the low-energy two-dimensional arrangement of water molecules on the basal surface of muscovite. At a coverage of 9 water molecules per 2 surface potassium ions, there is room to accommodate the ions into wetting layers wherein half of them are hydrated by 3 and the other half by 4 water molecules, with no broken H-bonds, or wh...
متن کاملEffect of interstitial fluid on a granular flowing layer
A dominant aspect of granular flows is flow in thin surface layers. While an understanding of the dynamics of dry granular surface flow has begun to emerge, the case of flow when air is completely replaced by a liquid is largely unexplored. Experiments were performed using particle tracking velocimetry (PTV) in a quasitwo-dimensional rotating tumbler to measure the velocity field within the flo...
