Description
Summary:Wind spatial redistribution of snow influences on exploitation of linear constructions; it is one of the principal factors of snow cornice’s forming on slopes. Calculation of snow-drift transport is indispensable when solving of practical problems. There are not enough actual data on snowstorm’s characteristics for many regions ofRussia, so we should use substituted data when we calculate the volume of snow-drift transport. Currently, the snow-drift observations are not carrying out on the network of hydrometeorological stations. There are several methods to calculate volume of snow-drift transport using only data of hydrometeorological stations (methods of D.M. Melnik, A.K. Dyunin and others). In this paper, we calculated the intensity and volume of snow-drift transport for two parts of west coast of SouthSakhalinusing different methods. And we should conclude that there is necessity to improve snow drifting research having the aim to solve practical problems. Существует ряд российских и зарубежных методик, позволяющих рассчитать объёмы снегопереноса. Эти методики можно использовать для первичной оценки объёмов снегопереноса, однако при решении практических задач получаемых по ним данных недостаточно. В работе проанализированы различные методики расчёта снегопереноса. С помощью некоторых из них выполнены расчёты объёмов снегопереноса для двух южных участков западного побережья о. Сахалин.
