1. 1. Evaluation of the variation in albedo over snow-covered forest in Northern Sweden and Finland

   University essay from Göteborgs universitet/Institutionen för geovetenskaper

   Author : Klara Hugosson; [2022-05-20]
   Keywords : ;

   Abstract : The effect of albedo variability induced by meteorological parameters in snow-covered forested areas at local scale is poorly known. Few meteorological stations measure albedo, even though the effect on albedo caused by land use changes is well known. READ MORE

3. 2. The impact of snow loads on snow galleries : An initial evaluation of the snow galleries on the Iron Ore Line in Northern Sweden

   University essay from Luleå tekniska universitet/Institutionen för samhällsbyggnad och naturresurser

   Author : Karin Björnlinger; [2022]
   Keywords : Snow load; snow gallery; steel; FEM; railway; cobweb effect; utilizations grade; Snölast; snögalleri; stål; FEM; järnväg; spindelnätseffekten; utnyttjandegrad;

   Abstract : The snow galleries along the Iron ore railway line in northern Sweden have had major problems in recent years due to increasingly large snow loads. Despite great efforts reducing the loads by shoveling off the snow, several of the galleries have been damaged. READ MORE

4. 3. Monitoring of heat exchanges in thesnowpack of Foxfonna glacier, Spitzbergen,Svalbard.

   University essay from Lunds universitet/Förbränningsfysik; Lunds universitet/Fysiska institutionen

   Author : Thibault Desjonquères; [2022]
   Keywords : Glaciers; Glaciology; Svalbard; Geophysics; Superimposed Ice; Foxfonna; Geology.; Physics and Astronomy;

   Abstract : The processes of meltwater storage in firn and the impact of refreezing on firn-coveredglaciers have been investigated on the Greenland ice-sheet. On Svalbard, climate changepromotes the disappearance of firn on glaciers. READ MORE

5. 4. Glide Quality in Cross-Country Skiing : The Topographical and Frictional Impact of the Stone Grind

   University essay from Luleå tekniska universitet/Institutionen för ekonomi, teknik, konst och samhälle

   Author : Martin Johansson; [2022]
   Keywords : Friction; Stone grind; Ski development; Snow; Coefficient of Friction; Cross-Country Skiing; Ski; Friktion; Stenslip; Skidutveckling; Snö; Friktionskoefficient; Skidor;

   Abstract : The Swedish Winter Olympic team is one of the strongest Olympic teams in theworld, and the majority of the team’s success comes from ski-related sports. So howcan the Swedish team remain, and maybe even accelerate, its competitive advantage? The answer is science. READ MORE

6. 5. Soft sensor for snow density measurements

   University essay from Mittuniversitetet/Institutionen för elektronikkonstruktion

   Author : Filippa Brandt; [2022]
   Keywords : Machine Learning; soft sensor; snow density; linear regression; GPR; neural network; SVM;

   Abstract : The aim of this project was to examine if a machine learning model could be used to predict snow density from six different weather parameters. These were artificially generated snow density, air temperature, ground temperature, relative humidity, windspeed and the snow depth change. READ MORE
