Physical Processes in a Snow Cover (Fizicheskie Protsessy v Snegovom Pokrove)

A critical analysis is given of the three theories regarding the hardening of the snow cover - regelation, molecular, and sublimation - thermodynamic. Special attention is given the third theory which gives the most satisfactory explanation of a series of properties characteristics of the snow cover...
