Evaporation and runoff from snow in the Alpine Zone of our western mountains
Francois E. Matthes
1938, Eos, Transactions, American Geophysical Union (19) 662
In this informal paper the processes of snow‐wastage at high altitudes were discussed and a number of slides illustrating suncups and sunpits in different stages of development were shown. It was stressed that these features are peculiar to the region above the timber‐line, which biologists term the Alpine, or Arctic‐Alpine, Zone. That regions is,...
