Drifting Snow Sublimation: Modeling and Field Results

This lecture covers the process of drifting snow sublimation, including its importance in Arctic and Tundra environments, sublimation modeling, suspension dynamics, and field measurement results. It discusses the impact on mass balance, moisture mass balance, and the spatial distribution of sublimation. The lecture also presents comparisons to surface sublimation, the effect on total mass balance, and the spatial heterogeneity of drifting snow sublimation. Various factors affecting sublimation, such as temperature, moisture, and concentration, are analyzed through field data and models.
