Modeling the Downwelling Longwave Radiation over a Groomed Ski Run under Clear Skies
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: he surface radiation budget of a groomed ski run is important to ski racing. Variables such as snow-surface temperature and liquid water content depend upon the surface radiation budget and are crucial to preparing fast ...
IR Radiation from Trees to a Ski Run: A Case Study
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: ccurately calculating the surface radiation budget of a groomed ski run is crucial when determining snow surface temperature and other snow-related variables, knowledge of which is important for ski racing. Downwelling ...
PISTE: A Snow-Physics Model Incorporating Human Factors for Groomed Ski Slopes
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: ccurately calculating snow-surface temperature and liquid water content for a groomed ski run, known as a ski piste, is crucial to the preparation of fast skis for alpine racing. Ski technicians can use forecasts of these ...
Forecasting Sun versus Shade in Complex Terrain for the 2010 Winter Olympic and Paralympic Games
Publisher: American Meteorological Society
Abstract: e 2010 Vancouver Winter Olympic and Paralympic Games in Canada, there were 10 mostly sunny days at the outdoor Olympic venues. The warmth and sunshine, possibly a result of El Niño conditions at the time, significantly ...
