Snow management modeling
§ Physically based snowpack models
allow simulation of the (natural) snow
cover
§ For the application in ski resorts, snow
management processes (snowmaking
and grooming) must be considered
§ Physical component: description of the snowmaking and grooming processes
§ Socioeconomic component: when, where,
and how much to produce
