How is the temperature gradient calculated?

The `get_temperature_gradient` tool calculates the rate of temperature change per meter by dividing the difference between surface and base temperatures by the total snow depth.

Can I predict weak layer formation?

Yes, the `assess_weak_layer_risk` tool evaluates the risk of kinetic metamorphism and facet formation based on the current temperature profile.

Does solar radiation affect the results?

Yes, the `get_stability_forecast` tool incorporates solar radiation intensity to determine how energy input modifies snowpack stability.

More Details Connect to Claude

This MCP server provides specialized analytical tools for snowpack stability assessment. It uses a heat conduction model to calculate the vertical temperature gradient via get_temperature_gradient. Users can evaluate the likelihood of dangerous crystal metamorphism using assess_weak_layer_risk, forecast stability based on solar and cloud conditions with get_stability_forecast, and determine how diurnal cycles affect the profile using get_diurnal_profile_impact.
