The new contributions of this study lie in the following points: (i) a wide range of snow properties (mean and Gaus- sian curvature distributions, directional correlation

The choice of this snow type was guided by our objective to easily measure local phase change fluxes against the orientation of crystals relative to the tem- perature

They provide the first obser- vational evidence that temperature gradient metamorphism induces dust particle motion in snow, while no movement is observed under isothermal

In particular, important questions such as the accuracy of the numerical methods used, the possible limitations due to image resolution or the minimal Representative Elementary

In the following, we first present a simple model that estimates the matter fluxes in a snow sample submitted to temperature gradients and address the faceting issue using
