Modeling the influence of snow cover temperature and water content on wet-snow avalanche runout
... Because we considered only wet-snow avalanches, the range of snow temperature was rather narrow and close to zero. The water content varied between 1 and 5 %, which is a typical range of bulk LWC for slopes (Heilig et ...
