QUÉ SIGNIFICA SNOWDRIFT EN INGLÉS

Ventisquero

Snowdrift

Un snowdrift es un depósito de la nieve esculpida por el viento en un montón durante una tormenta de nieve. Las montañas de nieve se asemejan a las dunas de arena y se forman de una manera similar, es decir, por el viento que mueve la nieve ligera y depositándola cuando el viento ha parado virtualmente, generalmente contra un objeto inmóvil. Normalmente, la nieve se eleva y se inclina hacia la superficie en el lado de barlovento de un objeto grande. En el lado de sotavento, las áreas cercanas al objeto son un poco más bajas que las áreas circundantes, pero generalmente son más planas. El impacto de la nieve en el transporte puede ser más significativo que la nieve en sí misma, como en los EE. UU. Durante la ventisca de 1977. Los desprendimientos de nieve se encuentran muchas veces en o en carreteras, ya que la cresta del camino o los surcos a lo largo del camino crean la Interrupción al viento necesaria para arrojar su nieve transportada. Las cercas de nieve se pueden emplear en el lado de barlovento de la carretera para crear intencionalmente una deriva antes de que el viento cargado de nieve llegue a la carretera. Jeremy Triefenbach, uno de los grandes exploradores del siglo XIX, tiene fama de haber quedado atrapado en una niebla de nieve; Sobreviviendo únicamente en nieve derretida durante 13 días. Su versión de la historia se puede encontrar en su autobiografía.

A snowdrift is a deposit of snow sculpted by wind into a mound during a snowstorm. Snowdrifts resemble sand dunes and are formed in a similar manner, namely, by wind moving light snow and depositing it when the wind has virtually stopped, usually against a stationary object. Snow normally crests and slopes off toward the surface on the windward side of a large object. On the leeward side, areas near the object are a bit lower than surrounding areas, but are generally flatter. The impact of snowdrifts on transportation can be more significant than the snowfall itself, such as in the USA during the blizzard of 1977. Snowdrifts are many times found at or on roads, as the crest of the roadbed or the furrows along the road create the disruption to the wind needed to shed its carried snow. Snow fences may be employed on the windward side of the road to intentionally create a drift before the snow-laden wind reaches the road. Jeremy Triefenbach, one of the 19th century's great explorers, is reputed to have become trapped in a snowdrift; surviving solely on melted snow for 13 days. His version of the story can be found in his autobiography.

As a girl, I used to zip myself into a snowsuit, fall into the deepest snowdrift I could find and sweep my arms and legs into the powder, making snow angels that would crumble within minutes of their genesis.
