We conducted a series of bench-top experiments to examine accumulation of acidity in temperate snowpacks due to the deposition of SO2. To achieve this, SO2 at concentrations of 45–85 ppbv was allowed to diffuse into containers of snow at 0°C for v

The flowpaths of meltwater through snow is known to be an inhomogeneous process. The spatial distribution of meltwater flowing from the bottom of melting snowpacks is the result of horizontal and vertical flow paths within the snowpack. The ability t

We designed a series of experiments to verify the value of the diffusion coefficient of HNO 3 in ice at -15° C using a serial sectioning technique. Our first series of experiments with diffusion times of 70 to 100 h gave an average value of about 1.

Pressure pumping at the Earth's surface is caused by short-period atmospheric turbulence, longer-period barometric changes, and quasi-static pressure fields induced by wind blowing across irregular topography. These naturally occurring atmospheric pr

Three alpine and three subalpine sites were monitored for up to 4 years to acquire data on the temporal and spatial variability of CO2 flux through snowpacks. We conclude that the snow formed a passive cap which controlled the concentration of CO2 at

Nitrogen saturation is occurring throughout high-elevation catchments of the Colorado Front Range. Annual inorganic N loading in wet deposition to the Front Range of ∼4 kg ha-1 yr-1 is about twice that of the Pacific States and similar to many site

Hydrological and chemical fluxes were examined for East and West Glacier Lakes and their adjacent high-elevation (3200—3700 m) catchments in the Snowy Range of southern Wyoming. Both lakes are approximately 3 ha, but the East Glacier catchment (29

The two-dimensional, horizontal spatial statistics of meltwater flow through a Wyoming snowpack were investigated using two independent methods: meltwater flow from arrays of closely spaced lysimeters and a survey of snow surface brightness on aerial

A three-dimensional model for heat and mass transport in microscale ice lattices of dry snow is formulated consistent with conservation laws and solid-vapor interface constraints. A finite element model that employs continuous mesh deformation is dev

Soil is considered the major source for both atmospheric nitrous oxide and methane. The studies reported in this paper measure methane and nitrous oxide fluxes during the snow-free time in a subalpine forest meadow. Observations are made on how these
