Illustration of the roles of snow in the evolution of the winter cover of a lake
Spatial patterns in the snow and ice cover of Elizabeth Lake, Labrador, as surveyed in late February 1979, are displayed and analysed. Relationships between distinct trends in the ice and less distinct trends in the snow are discussed within
a context of processes operative during a winter. The nature of and spatial patterns in the winter cover of lakes and their evolution have important implications for those interested in generalizing about lake ice properties and about the effects of snow

this interaction in a quantitative way. Experiments in which the ice-sheet model is coupled step by step to the climate model show that ice sheets hardly affect the zonal mean radiation balance because the albedo feedback due to sea ice and snow cover is dominating
