Modelling Seasonally Freezing Ground Conditions.
This projects's aim is to model the spatial distribution of snowcover in areas experiencing seasonally frozen ground. SNOWM1, the model that is currently being developed is an attempt to mathematically model and thereby represent, the distribution of snow within a catchment over the snow season...

Figure 1 considers a plane model slope the position and elevation of which are defined by the coordinates X, Y and Z. X and Z are the axes of rotation, for variations of slope angles and azimuths.
