Synopsis

This text examines the processes which control the chemistry of seasonal snowcover and provides detailed information on the biogeographical distribution of snow (urban, alpine), snow composition (micropollutants, stable isotopes) and physical and biological processes (wind, microbiological activity). The fluxes of chemicals at the snow-atmosphere and snow-soil interfaces are examined, along with the processes which modify composition within the snow-cover.

Présentation de l'éditeur

Seasonal Snowpacks examines the processes which control the chemistry of seasonal snowcover and provides detailed information on the biogeographical distribution of snow (e.g. urban, alpine snowpacks), snow composition (e.g. micropollutants, stable isotopes) or the physical and biological processes which influence the chemical changes in snow (e.g. wind, microbiological activity). The fluxes of chemicals at the snow-atmosphere and snow-soil interfaces are examined, as are processes which modify composition within the snowcover. It is the first book in which the reader will find a comprehensive overview of the theoretical concepts, latest measurement techniques, process-oriented research methods, and models of studies in snow chemistry. The linkages between snow chemistry, atmospheric chemistry and hydrology will make this book of use to both research workers and students in the physical and biological sciences and to natural resource management personnel.
