According to some of sources, North American spring ephermal plants like spring beauty ( Claytonia caroliniana ), trout lily ( Erythronium americanum ) and red trillium ( Trillium erectum L.) benefit from such ...
In winter regions that do not have permafrost, the subnivean zone maintains a temperature of close to 32 °F (0 °C) regardless of the temperature above the snow cover, once the snow cover has reached a depth of six inches (15 cm) or more. The sinuous tunnels left by these small mammals can be seen from above when the snow melts to the final ...
The recognition of this phenomenon in all the mentioned contexts is not in doubt. Car tyres work in snow even though there is some increased surface melting because they have tread which allows water to be liberated. Ice skating is given as an example of regelation; however, the pressure required is much greater than the weight of a skater.
