Abstract:
In this work results of research on water filtration and adhesion properties of the snow avalanche station "Cheget peak" in the Elbrus region (altitude 3000 m) are demonstrated. The experiments were carried
out at zero temperatures in late March - early April. The authors defined height of capillary rise of water
in the snow samples with different densities at a constant size of the crystals and of constant density with
different size crystals. Water-holding capacity of snow with different structures and densities was calculated.
Keywords:
humidity, water-holding capacity, effective surface, filtration, capillary characteristic,
moisture capacity, porosity.
