  • Black Carbon and Other Light-Absorbing Impurities in Snow in the Chilean Andes
    www.nature.com/scientificreports OPEN Black carbon and other light- absorbing impurities in snow in the Chilean Andes Received: 20 July 2018 Penny M. Rowe 1,2, Raul R. Cordero1, Stephen G. Warren3, Emily Stewart4, Accepted: 16 January 2019 Sarah J. Doherty5, Alec Pankow4, Michael Schrempf6, Gino Casassa7,8, Jorge Carrasco7, Published: xx xx xxxx Jaime Pizarro1, Shelley MacDonell9, Alessandro Damiani1,10, Fabrice Lambert 11,13, Roberto Rondanelli12,13, Nicolas Huneeus12,13, Francisco Fernandoy 14 & Steven Neshyba4 Vertical profles of black carbon (BC) and other light-absorbing impurities were measured in seasonal snow and permanent snowfelds in the Chilean Andes during Austral winters 2015 and 2016, at 22 sites between latitudes 18°S and 41°S. The samples were analyzed for spectrally-resolved visible light absorption. For surface snow, the average mass mixing ratio of BC was 15 ng/g in northern Chile (18– 33°S), 28 ng/g near Santiago (a major city near latitude 33°S, where urban pollution plays a signifcant role), and 13 ng/g in southern Chile (33–41°S). The regional average vertically-integrated loading of BC was 207 µg/m2 in the north, 780 µg/m2 near Santiago, and 2500 µg/m2 in the south, where the snow season was longer and the snow was deeper. For samples collected at locations where there had been no new snowfall for a week or more, the BC concentration in surface snow was high (~10–100 ng/g) and the sub-surface snow was comparatively clean, indicating the dominance of dry deposition of BC. Mean albedo reductions due to light-absorbing impurities were 0.0150, 0.0160, and 0.0077 for snow grain radii of 100 µm for northern Chile, the region near Santiago, and southern Chile; respective mean radiative forcings for the winter months were 2.8, 1.4, and 0.6 W/m2.

  • From: Lee Greenwald To
    From: Lee Greenwald To: FS-objections-pnw-mthood Subject: Twilight Parking lot Date: Monday, March 03, 2014 11:44:20 PM Attachments: 2013 International Report on Snow Mountain Tourism.pdf Cross-country skiing experiencing a Nordic renaissance Olympian.pdf Twilight Parking Lot OBJECTION 3-1-14 EAE v2.doc Dear objections official, I previously raised several objections concerning Mt Hood Meadows application to build the Twilight Parking lot. Though some, not all, of these objections were ostensibly addressed in their responses, they were not addressed fully nor adequately. I raised concerns regarding Meadows assumptions on growth in demand for Alpine skiing. The last ten years MHM stated continued growth trends, but actually the most recent previous two years that has not been the trend. The true growth is in Nordic skiing. The majority of the Nordic community is against the creation of the Twilight lot without a comprehensive analysis of potential future use of this terrain, and nearby Nordic trails and connecting trails. This type of analysis has not been done, and would be precluded by proceeding with the construction of the Twilight lot before all future use options have been considered. Second, I asked that MHM be required by the FS to place the funds, $500,000, for a Nordic center in a designated account for a future Nordic center building, and a restrictive timeline for construction. If the parking lot is to be built, the Nordic community should have some prior input on the Nordic facility to be built prior to the lots final approval. The response that was posted simply stated that "a" facility would be built within three years.

LA MONTAÑA SAGRADA Iniciaré la historia de este santuario incaico de alta montaña con la reflexión, que encuentro muy acertada, publicada en julio de 1991 por Franco Mangini sobre “la bárbara ceremonia del sacrificio de niños”. Cualquiera sea la justificación, época o razón, mirados desde el punto de vista del “sacrificado” y de sus padres, que encuentro muy acertada. EL NIÑO DE LOS ANDES EL AUSTRAL, Lunes, 15 de Julio de 1991 Franco Mangini Los antropólogos, los arqueólogos, los investigadores del pasado cumplen una fascinante labor, que bordea muchas veces los ribetes del ámbito policial, cuando a través de exámenes médicos modernos se descubre que el asesinato fue empleado muchas veces, para solucionar o complicar situaciones políticas. Nada nuevo bajo el sol, ese mismo sol que para los incas constituía el dios dador de vida, Inti, y al cual ofrecían sacrificios humanos. Puede causar extrañeza este hecho, considerando la cultura del imperio incaico, el Tiwantinsuyu, dividido en cuatro regiones, al norte el Chinchasuyu, entre Lima y Arica se ubicaba el Kuntisuyu, circundando El Cuzco encontramos el Antisuyu y finalmente hacia el sur, hasta el río Maule, el Collasuyu, que también incluía las pampas argentinas. Pero cultura no es sinónimo de piedad, dulzura o amor. y todas las religiones idólatras que pretenden aplacar fuerzas naturales, como rayos, truenos, lluvias, o bien obtener continuidad de favores, como la luz solar, recurrían, en último término al doloroso sacrificio humano, incluyendo niños y adolescentes.

  • SKIING in CHILIE - Rochelle Lash
    SKIING IN CHILIE - Rochelle Lash PORTILLO, Chile – Devoted skiers and snowboarders crave thrilling slopes and exceptional snow all year-'round, and the epic Andes Mountains of Chile have heaps of both. In the reversed seasons of South America, ski areas in Chile are blessed with as much as seven metres of mostly light powder snow from June to early October. Skiers and boarders who need a winter fix while Montreal is sweltering in summer can hop a plane to Santiago, Chile's modern capital city and the gateway to the Chilean Andes. Having precious white stuff underfoot is the common factor, but skiing or riding in southern hemisphere areas such as Portillo, Valle Nevado or Termas de Chillan is an adventure and incalculably different than skiing “up north.” On the slopes, the snow bowls are so stark and vast you might have only a condor for company. Back at the bar, Andes après-ski is no less challenging. The national cocktail is the pisco sour, made with a grape brandy that's 40-per-cent alcohol. I learned to snowplow on a slope in the Laurentians little bigger than a driveway, so I needed all my courage – and then some-- for my first run in the Andes. When Portillo’s spine-tingling high-speed quad chairlift swooped upwards over the steep jagged mountain cornices, I held onto my Swiss instructor in a state of terror. That was only the first step. The daunt- ing prospect of making first tracks down steep pitches through deep powder was looming. As intimidating as the Andes are, the downhill areas in Chile have about two-thirds of their slopes groomed for intermedi- ates.
