Fi~ 1.8. The calculated convective field over snow surface with 250 m convective layer depth,
0.7 m s-l wind velocity and 0.1 g m-J liquid water content and -50C temperature at the top boundary.
There is no temperature difference between the'air and the snow surface at the lower boundary.

Figl4re 1.9. As in Fig. 8, this convective field has no heat flux coming from the snow surface. The
depth of this field is 450 m with 0.7 m s-l wind. The liquid water content and temperature at the
top boundary are 0.05 9 m-J and _150C, respectively.
