Abstract
Effect of Aspect (A), in relation to Slope (S), on snow depth (Da) Da = D + 0.33(cos A)(tan S)xD Da is in centimeters and is a non-negative value. The least it can be is zero. 0.33(cos A)(tan S)xD simply modifies the elevation value, but it interacts with slope. The maximum value that tan(S) is allowed to take is 1.00, which occurs at a slope of 45 degrees (100%). Slopes greater than 45 degrees are treated the same as 45 degrees. The 0.33 constant is strictly arbitrary, yielding a 100% greater depth on dueNorth than due-South aspects on 45 slopes, and a 27% greater depth on 20 slopes.
