estimating the distribution of snow melt equivalent at the peak of snow accumulation, through degree – day model
estimating snow melt water equivalent is one of the most important challenges in determining the hydrological regime in mountainous basins. there are some problematic obstacles in field observations, due to inaccessibility as well due to difficulties in snow sampling at snow covered peaks making researchers try to find indirect approaches. one of these methods in use is degree- day model that i...

متن کاملInfluence of canopy density on snow distribution in a temperate mountain range
We analyse spatial variability and different evolution patterns of snowpack in a mixed beech–fir stand in the central Pyrenees. Snow depth and density were surveyed weekly along six transects of contrasting forest cover during a complete accumulation and melting season; we also surveyed a sector unaffected by canopy cover. Forest density was measured using the sky view factor (SVF) obtained fro...
متن کاملSnow and Earthquake Load Combination Considering Snow Accumulation
In certain parts of the USA, both earthquake and snow hazards may be significant. Turkstra’s rule is commonly used for load combinations. However, the rule may not be acceptable for structures that are exposed to both snow and earthquake loads that assume a significant level. In this paper, a hazard simulation computer program (HASP) is developed and Monte Carlo Simulation is performed to inves...
متن کاملOcclusion-Based Snow Accumulation Simulation
We present a fast technique for the simulation of accumulated snow. Our technique is based on two phenomena; local occlusion of small holes and ditches, and the global influence of a skylight. We use ambient occlusion to predict the shape and location of snow accumulation and direct illumination from the skylight to simulate the melting and sublimation of snow as dissipation. The snow is simula...
