Design Of An Instrumentation System To Record Distribution Profile Of Snow Layer Temperature For Modelling Of Snow Avalanche Forecast, Raman Attri

Raman K. Attri

The measurement of snow hydrological parameters is extremely important in developing a model for the predication of Snow avalanche as well as Snowmelt water in the rivers. When direct measurement of these parameters is practically difficult, its dependence on snow temperature is used to develop snow cover models. A robust model for avalanche forecasting requires a sophisticated instrumentation system which can measure the required temperature parameters at right data points within snow pack. A Snow Temperature Profile Sensing System along with Surface temperature Sensor has been designed to measure Snow temperature gradient, temperature distributions, and average temperature of snow pack, …
