Temperature-gradient (TG) metamorphim


Temperature-gradient (TG) metamorphim : The variation of temperature per unit depth of the snow cover; also, constructive metamorphism of deposited snow crystals in response to a strong vertical temperature gradient (generally greater than 0.1 degree C/cm) in the snowpack and accompanying differences in vapor pressure with depth, where marked crystal growth generally has an adverse effect on mechanical properties of snow
