Growing Snow to Help Predict Avalanches

Ed Adams, an engineering professor at Montana State University, used to study avalanches from inside a fortified shack. He would attach his shack to a boulder on a mountain, set small explosives in the snowpack, and trigger an avalanche, surrounding the shack.

“Once snow gets on the ground, it’s in an ongoing state of change,” Adams says. That changeability makes the snowpack dangerously unpredictable. Scientists such as Adams know a lot about avalanches in general but very little about their inner workings.

Adams has since moved from his shack into the Subzero Research Facility at Montana State, where he now studies snow by growing it in “cold rooms” (about –5°F). In the room, he blows air over a small water reservoir that he keeps at 65°. He then channels water vapor up a chimney and into a cat’s cradle of strings, where the vapor crystallizes. When he plucks the strings, snowflakes fall. Adams collects his snow in a box and carries it into a different room, one with a refrigerated ceiling, simulating what snow experiences outdoors under a cold winter sky. He is interested in radiation recrystallization, a phenomenon that occurs as snow deeper in the pack becomes warmer than that at the top. Once he has warmed the snow with lamps, he adds more, cuts the frosty layers in half, paints spots onto the side of the snow, and sets up a camera. A computer program records the movement of the paint specks while Adams top-loads and stress-tests the snowpack. “We track the deformation of the snow until failure,” he says, and he works with forecasters to help find the same kind of unstable spots on mountains.

Bit the bullet - TractorByNet.com

by ctgoldwing

And, drumroll please, yesterday I bought a Normand 60" blower off an ad on Craigslist from a woman about 40 miles from here. The machine is in GREAT shape, always stored indoors and has hydraulics for chute rotation & deflection. I pick it up sometime this week. $1500 seemed a very fair price to me. After I check it out on the tractor I now have to get remotes on the rear - this is a good excuse to get a hydro top link next summer
