Preceding features and relationship with possible affecting factors of persistent and extensive icing events in China
ABSTRACT As two major types of icing, rime and glaze, especially those with long persistency and extensive coverage, cause great economic and social damages for China. Based on 28 persistent and extensive rime events and 19 glaze events in China, this article examined their preceding features and re...
