Spatial distribution of the snow thermal resistance on the Russian territory and its impact on the ground freezing and thawing

The effect of the snow cover thermal resistance on dynamics of the ground (soil) freezing and thawing is analyzed with the use of numerical modeling. Model calculations show that when heights and densities of snow covers are different, but their thermal resistances are the same, dynamics of the soil...
