If the annual precipitation near Hudson Bay (latitude 55°N) is 38 cm (15 in.) per year, calculate how long it would take snow falling on this region to reach a thickness of 3000 m (about 10,000 ft). (Assume that all the precipitation falls as snow, that there is no melting during the summer, and that the annual precipitation remains constant. To account for compaction of the snow, use a water equivalent of 5 to 1.)
