History
of Winter (HOW) Program
...............................
|
The History of Winter Program
took place at Lake Plaid. NASA scientists study
snow, how much falls, kinds of snow, warmth of the snow at
different levels in a snow pit and difference between ice
and snow. Properties of snow have serious
implications for NASA satellites. Snow reflects
light that can interfere with remote sensing, data
collection and weather observations from the satellites.
Scientists can predict avalanches by identifying a certin
kind of snow in the snow pack, called snow sugar.
