Ion flux through a shallow snowpack: Effects of initial and melt conditions

Six intermediate-scale experiments were performed to determine the effects of melt rate, melt-freeze cycles, and initial chemical distribution on the timing and magnitude of the ionic pulse from a physically homogeneous snowpack. The greatest ionic concentration in the initial snowmelt resulted when...
