Snow Wetness Measurement by Fluorescent Dye Dilution
The fluorescent dye dilution method for determining the liquid-water content in snow is based on measuring the concentration change of a solution when it is mixed with snow. Samples for analysis can be obtained rapidly and reliably, and, unlike calorimetric or equilibrium-temperature methods, field...

Summary: | The fluorescent dye dilution method for determining the liquid-water content in snow is based on measuring the concentration change of a solution when it is mixed with snow. Samples for analysis can be obtained rapidly and reliably, and, unlike calorimetric or equilibrium-temperature methods, field use requires no on-site data analysis.-from Authors |
