What does frost line mean?
the maximum depth of ground below which the soil does not freeze in winter.
How does the depth of the snow cover influence the depth to which the ground freezes?
As pressure (ie, depth) goes up, freezing temperature goes down. however it gets complicated as ice has many different phases and moves between those phases as pressure and temperature changes. For more info: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ice as pressure depth goes up,freezing tempurture goes down however it gets complecating as ice has many different phases and moves bewtween thoes phases as pressuer and tempurture changes.
What is the frost line depth for Anchorage Alaska?
Using the Modified Berggren equation and typical soil parameter values, depth of freeze is approximately 3.7 ft. Of course, there are a lot of assumptions here, e.g., snow depth, etc. This value can vary significantly depending on ground surface characteristics, depth of snow, timing of first snowfall, soil characteristics, etc, etc.
Why does liquid nitrogen not freeze when it hits the ground?
Why should it freeze, the ground temperature is far above -210 oC (melting point)
How do snowflakes stick to the ground?
The ground freezes, then the ground in cold enough for the snowflakes to freeze to it.
What sea is likely to freeze from its low concentration of salt and shallow depth?
The Baltic Sea
When raindrops freeze before they hit the ground what forms?
Sleet forms when it hits the ground
Will rain on the ground freeze and turn into ice?
Yes
What are droplets that freeze as they get closer to the ground?
Rain droplets that freeze before reaching the ground is called sleet.Sleet is snowflakes and rain. Frozen droplets are usually known as hail.

What is the analogy for if ascend is to height what is to descend?
Depth. To ascend is to go up, and to descend is go down. We measure the height of things above the ground and the depth of things below the ground.
A deep soil has to have a depth of how many inches?
A deep soil has to have a depth of 6 to 8 inches. Soils is what is on the ground.
