Abstract

A capacitive cell is a practical device for measuring liquid water in snow. We have studied the statistical and physical calibration of a one MHz cell using 251 samples, with liquid water measured independently by acid dilution. The assumption that capacitance is a linear function of snow density and liquid water results in an unacceptable model. A nonlinear model with high goodness-of-fit to our data is derived from physical assumptions.
