This lecture covers the physics behind snowpack modeling, including solar radiation, wind, precipitation, and energy transfer within the snowpack. It explains the numerical model SNOWPACK, developed at SLF and EPFL, and its working principles. The lecture also delves into practical examples of using SNOWPACK for vapor transport and hydrology simulations, showcasing its applications in understanding snow density profiles and water vapor transport in alpine regions.
