Changes in a shallow snow cover subject to a temperate climate

Observations were carried out on each significant layer of the snow cover at Ottawa (lat. 45 degrees 24'N., long. 75 degrees 43'W.) on the thickness of the layer, and the density, grain size distribution and degree of bonding of the snow in each layer. A logarithmic dependence on time was...
