<h2>Course Objectives:</h2>
<p>
The focus of this school lies on alpine snowpack field measurements combined with theoretical lessons in the
classroom. Students are supervised by a team of lecturers, experts in various snow-related fields and from
different countries worldwide. Field measurements will be done in small groups of 3-4 students. Each group of
students will have to prepare a report describing the methods, results and interpretation of the data they
will have collected over the week, in addition to other inputs that could be provided (modelling data for
example). The course corresponds to 3 ETCS-Points. The winter school is listed in the coursebook of the doctoral
school at EPFL Lausanne. To receive full credit, a report taking 40 hours of homework must be handed in and will
be evaluated.

<h2>Course Overview:</h2>
<p>
Covering up to 49% of the total land surface in midwinter in the northern hemisphere, snow is a crucial
component of the cryosphere. Snow plays a key role in our environnment, with social and economical
implications such as the climate change, natural hazard, tourisms, etc. How does snow behave and interact
with its surrounding largely depends on its microstructure, which varies widely from light dendritic
snowflakes to small rounded grains or dense melt crusts for instance. Measuring and characterizing snow is
therefore essential.
<br>
<br>
Great advances have been made over the past 15 years toward more quantitative, objective characterization of
snow, allowing for a better, more physical description of the processes; they came along with new
measurements techniques. These improved quantification methods of the snow cover must be spread to the
cryosphere scientists community, and beyond, as beneficial to many applications in this field, e.g. hydrology,
climatology, avalanche forecasting or earth observation from space.
<br>
<br>
The 6th Snow Science Winter School will teach these modern techniques of snow measurements. The school
consists of a field training complemented by theoretical lessons. It includes the practice with some of
the state-of-the-art snow measurement techniques (specific surface area by reflection and spectroscopy,
near-infrared photography, high-resolution penetrometry, micro-tomography, etc). Students will learn
about how to characterize snow cover, what are the fundamental processes responsible for its evolution,
and how does it interacts with the environment. For this edition, a special focus will be on snow in a
changing climate, impact on human and nature.
