Liquid water infiltration into a layered snowpack: evaluation of a 3-D water transport model with laboratory experiments
The heterogeneous movement of liquid water through the snowpack during precipitation and snowmelt leads to complex liquid water distributions that are important for avalanche and runoff forecasting. We reproduced the formation of capillary barriers and the development of preferential flow throug...
