Abstract

Overall results comparing field observations and Crocus simulations during the winters 1993–94 and 1994–95 in two different climate zones are presented. We present information on: snow depth, snow-temperature profiles, density profiles, liquid-water content profiles and grain metamorphism. Snow profiles illustrating the typical behavior of the model are presented and are shown to illustrate the sensitivity of Crocus to different mountain climates. Heat-exchange simulation, together with qualitative analysis of meteorological data, give promising results for surface-hoar prediction.
