    Alpine Turbulence and Blowing Snow

    Get PDF
    Blowing snow in mountainous terrain is a complex nonlinear phenomenon driven by turbulent eddies with length scales ranging from millimetres to kilometres. Turbulent motions across a wide spectrum of sizes are superimposed on each other, interacting through a non-stationary energy and momentum cascade. In cold regions, snow redistribution by these turbulent motions impacts hydrology, glaciology, avalanche safety, and civil engineering. Blowing snow models typically rely on relating time-averaged turbulence statistics, which may oversimplify the complexity of the flow, especially in complex mountainous terrain, to steady-state snow transport. The present research sought to improve the understanding of the dominant structures in ASL turbulence relevant to snow transport, as well as characterize the short timescale response of blowing snow to specific eddy structures. A fundamental experiment was designed utilizing high-speed videography of laser illuminated near-surface blowing snow saltation coupled with adjacent 3D sonic anemometer wind measurements at two heights. The experiments were conducted at Fortress Mountain Snow Laboratory in the Canadian Rockies of Alberta during nighttime blowing snow storms. Novel applications of particle tracking velocimetry and binarization algorithms to blowing snow recordings allowed extraction of time resolved snow particle velocities synchronized with instantaneous wind velocities, as well as time series of volumetric averages of blowing snow density in the first 30 mm above the surface. High-speed blowing snow video and measurements revealed the importance of the often- overlooked creep mode of transport to both transport initiation and flux. Blowing snow velocity and flux profiles were found to be temporally variable and dependent on instantaneous wind speed, with dominant modes of transport varying during turbulent gusts. Sweep and ejection wind events were coupled to blowing snow responses on sub-second timescales, with each quadrant event playing a unique role in transport initiation and sustaining snow fluxes. Finally, large low-frequency turbulent motions, hypothesized to follow a top-down characterization, were found to modulate the amplitude of near-surface turbulence, as well as directly contribute to blowing snow fluxes. The role of intermittent coherent turbulent structures challenges the ability of time-averaged turbulence statistics to represent the complexity of wind-snow coupling, especially in mountainous terrain. The strong relationship found between large-scale turbulence modulating eddies and near-surface turbulence, also challenges the efficacy of applying steady- state laboratory-derived flux relationships to model transport in the ASL. The results presented here, along with recent advances on coherent turbulent structures provide an optimistic semi- deterministic avenue for improving blowing snow models in complex mountainous terrain

    HOLLYWOODLANDIA: CELEBRITY WOMEN, MOVIE CULTURE, AND AMERICAN PUBLIC WOMANHOOD, 1916-1950

    Get PDF
    This project proposes to study the ways in which celebrity women’s behavior may have encouraged American women to challenge, but not necessarily subvert, traditional gender roles even as Hollywood publicity continued to emphasize the importance of those same roles in women’s lives. It does that by examining three sites where celebrity women prominently lived, worked, played, and volunteered between 1920 and 1950: the Hollywood Studio Club, a boarding house only for women in the entertainment industry, in Los Angeles; the Sun Valley Ski Resort, the first modern ski resort in the American West, in central Idaho; and the Hollywood Canteen, a volunteer canteen for servicemen staffed only by Hollywood personnel, also in Los Angeles. An examination of the archival records of each site, together with fan magazine coverage, reveals that these sites became spaces where celebrity women pushed the boundaries of traditional gender norms and the strict separation of spheres that movie fan culture promoted. Simultaneously, these places came to represent certain ideologies about gender, class, and race in the United States between 1920 and 1950. Hollywoodlandia demonstrates at these three individual sites, celebrity women behaved in ways that may have encouraged women to challenge traditional gender roles and expectations about their bodies in public spaces. However, the publicity about that same behavior at these sites reveals the extents to which creators of movie fan culture were invested in maintaining and reflecting not only traditional gender roles, but also propagating images of rich white women meant to function as representatives of the evolving conceptions of an “ideal” national American womanhood between 1920 and 1950, a womanhood that was malleable and modern and yet unchangingly restrictive. Within this argument can be found messages about the differences between how celebrity women and the film industry reflected, disseminated, and pushed back against prevailing ideas about gender, race, class, and nationalism in the United States during the industry’s golden age, laying the groundwork for a postwar cultural turn toward the home as women’s appropriate domain

    Comprehensive Bibliography of Chadic and Hausa Linguistics, Third Edition

    Get PDF
    The Comprehensive Bibliography of Chadic and Hausa Linguistics is an updated, expanded, and corrected edition of the print book published some twenty years ago by RĂŒdiger Köppe Verlag (Newman 1996). The outpouring of new publications on Chadic and Hausa in the ensuing years created the need for an updated bibliography. The first edition of this online bibliography was published in 2012 at Bayreuth University, the second edition in 2013 at Indiana University (http://hdl.handle.net/2022/16600), and the current third edition in 2015, also at Indiana University. This comprehensive bibliography covers all works written on Chadic and Hausa languages and linguistics dating from 1790 to the present. In addition to published books and articles, the bibliography includes unpublished Ph.D. dissertations and master's theses. The bibliography is international in scope and covers works regardless of the language in which they were written. For example, there are close to a hundred works written in Hausa. Titles of works in languages other than English, French, or German are accompanied by English translations. Russian titles in Cyrillic script are transliterated into Roman script. Book reviews are listed under the entry for the book being reviewed. A new feature of this 3rd edition is the addition of a Book Review Author Index, which indicates all the books that any individual has reviewed. Finally, the bibliography contains a section consisting of obituaries, (auto-) biographical essays, and related works on major scholars, now deceased, who have contributed significantly to Chadic or Hausa linguistics

    Online Bibliography of Chadic and Hausa Linguistics

    The Online Bibliography of Chadic and Hausa Linguistics (OBCHL), henceforth the ‘biblio’, is an updated, expanded, and corrected edition of the bibliography published some fifteen years ago by RĂŒdiger Köppe Verlag (Newman 1996). That biblio was built on valuable earlier works including Hair (1967), Newman (1971), Baldi (1977), R. M. Newman (1979), Awde (1988), and Barreteau (1993). The ensuing years have witnessed an outpouring of new publications on Chadic and Hausa, written by scholars from around the globe, thereby creating the need for a new, up-to-date bibliography. Data gathered for this online edition, which was compiled using EndNote, an excellent and easy to use bibliographic database program, have come from my own library and internet searches as well as from a variety of published sources. Particularly valuable have been the reviews of the earlier bibliography, most notably the detailed review article by Baldi (1997), the Hausa and Chadic entries in the annual Bibliographie Linguistique, compiled over the past dozen years by Dr. Joe McIntyre, and the very useful list of publications found regularly in MĂ©ga-Tchad. A subsequent third edition of this work can be found at http://hdl.handle.net/2022/20576
