Environmental Impact - Soil/water effects

Wentworth, D. S. (1972). Effect of snow compaction on frost penetration and soil temperature under natural conditions in central Maine.

Abstract

The effect of snow compaction in relation to frost penetration and soil temperatures were studied on eight sample plots. Multiple linear regression analysis was used to develop regressions of three environmental variable as well as time upon soil temperature. Compaction of the snow cover had little effect on average soil temperature under the different treatment areas.
