Living Snow Fence Case Study: Gaylord, MN
	Introduction   Snowfall   Wind Direction   Fetch Distance   Snow Water Equiv.   Snow Transport   Porosity   Attack Angle   Setback Conclusions   References The observed snow storage was found to be 30.5 t/m at Gaylord. The storage capacity of this fence design is 76.4 t/m; therefore this design captured roughtly 40% of capacity for the 2000-01 season. The calculated setback distance of 205 ft is 55 ft greater than the actual setback of 150 ft. However, no problems occurred at this site because snow deposition did not encroach on the roadway.   Click for larger image     close this window
