Effect of wind on surface hoar growth on snow
Hachikubo, Akihiro
Akitaya, Eizi
Field observations of surface hoax formation were carried out with
the measurementso f water vapor condensationr ate, snows urfacet emperature, air
temperature, humidity, wind speed, and net radiation. Large surface hoar crystals
wereo bservetdo formu ndert he breezyw ind,I to 2 m s- i, at 0.1m high. The
condensationra te increasedli nearly with the producto f the vapor pressureg radient
and the wind speed. The bulk transferc oefficienot f water vapor Ce was roughly
constant when the surface hoar crystals were small, whereas it showed some increase
as the hoarc rystalsg rewt o severaml illimeterisn height.A possiblcea useo f this
increase in Ce is that the developed surface hoar crystals modify the aerodynamic
roughnessa nd consequentliyn creaseth e turbulentt ransfero f water vapor.
