New Paper in The Cryosphere

Our researchers were contributing to the new paper "Unlocking the potential of melting calorimetry: a field protocol for liquid water content measurement in snow" published in The Cryosphere

Melting calorimetry, a classic experiment often conducted in high-school chemistry laboratories, holds significant untapped potential for scientific applications beyond its educational context.

This research revisits the formulations for both melting and freezing calorimeters to assess volumetric liquid water content in snow.

Melting calorimetry can potentially serve as a valuable tool for the independent calibration and validation of proximal and remote sensing techniques used for liquid water content retrieval.
