Title: Surface Tension of Snow Slopes and Avalanche Control: Date: 1976; Authors: R. Hakabayashi; Description: It is known that snow metamorphism is initially driven by the tendency of individual snow grains toward minimum surface area (Kuroiwa, 1976). Dendriti...; Object ID: issw-1976-061-063.pdf; Keywords: diffusion, fracturing, avalanche release, tension tests; View additional details about Surface Tension of Snow Slopes and Avalanche Control
