Compactive Viscosity of Snow and Its Climatic Implications at Mizuho Station, Antarctica (Special Issue of the Proceedings of the First Symposium on Antarctic Meteorology and Glaciology)

The compactive viscosity coefficient of snow was obtained from a density profile at Mizuho Station, Antarctica The value of the compactive viscosity coefficient was by two orders of magnitude larger than that of ordinary seasonal snow. The large value was attributed to strong bonds between constitue...
