O článku:
Snow production results in high volume of snow that is remaining on the low-elevation ski pistes after snowmelt
of natural snow on the off-piste sites. The aim of this study was to identify snow/ice depth, snow density, and snow
water equivalent of remaining ski piste snowpack to calculate and to compare snow ablation water volume with potential
infiltration on the ski piste area at South-Central Slovak ski center Košútka (Inner Western Carpathians; temperate zone).
Snow ablation water volume was calculated from manual snow depth and density measurements, which were performed
at the end of five winter seasons 2010–2011 to 2015–2016, except for season 2013–2014. The laser diffraction analyzes
were carried out to identify soil grain size and subsequently the hydraulic conductivity of soil to calculate the infiltration.
The average rate of water movement through soil was seven times as high as five seasons’ average ablation rate of ski
piste snowpack; nevertheless, the ski piste area was potentially able to infiltrate only 47% of snow ablation water volume
on average. Limitation for infiltration was frozen soil and ice layers below the ski piste snowpack and low snow-free area
at the beginning of the studied ablation period.
