Title: Analyzing the Atmosphere-Snow Energy Balance for Wet-Snow Avalanche Prediction
Date: 2012
Authors: Christoph Mitterer, Jürg Schweizer
Description: Melt water is the major driver of wet-snow instability. Its percolation and interaction with snow is complex, poorly understood and hence not well dep...

Title: Growth Characteristics of Hoarfrost With Respect to Avalanche Occurrence
Date: 1986
Authors: Steven R. Breyfogle
Description: Studies in a maritime climate have found hoarfrost occurrence to be related to an inversion climate and topography, which produced high spatial variat...
