Ice to Snow Ratio Calculator

Formula

To calculate the Ice to Snow Ratio (\(ISNR\)):

\[ ISNR = \frac{I}{S} \]

Where:

\(ISNR\) is the Ice to Snow Ratio
\(I\) is the total depth of ice (in inches)
\(S\) is the total depth of snow (in inches)

What is an Ice to Snow Ratio?

The Ice to Snow Ratio is a measure used to compare the depth of ice to the depth of snow. It is useful in meteorology and other fields to understand the relative amounts of ice and snow accumulation in a given area.

Example Calculation 1

Let's assume the following values:

Total Depth of Ice (\(I\)) = 2 inches
Total Depth of Snow (\(S\)) = 10 inches

Using the formula:

\[ ISNR = \frac{2}{10} = 0.20 \]

The Ice to Snow Ratio is 0.20.

Example Calculation 2

Let's assume the following values:

Total Depth of Ice (\(I\)) = 1 inch
Total Depth of Snow (\(S\)) = 8 inches

Using the formula:

\[ ISNR = \frac{1}{8} = 0.125 \]

The Ice to Snow Ratio is 0.125.
