Sensor for detection of ice accumulation and liquid water content in wet snow

Project ID# D2019-13BackgroundLiquid water content (LWC) of snow is the ratio of the weight of water contained to the total weight of the wet snow. LWC of snow influences its density, adhesion to surfaces, and snow cohesiveness which determines its stability, shedding, and melting runoff. Ice build-up can fall from structures, such as bridges, causing...
