The atmospheric temperature decreases when snow starts melting because the snow releases thermal energy from the atmosphere to melt.

Answer:

The atmospheric temperature decreases when snow starts melting as the area covered by snow or ice grows.

Explanation:

  • The "sensitivity of climate index" (α) is used to measure the thermal impact of melting snow and ice surfaces on the lower atmospheric temperature.
  • When there is a minimum amount of moisture in the air and the ambient temperature is at or below freezing (0 degrees Celsius or 32 degrees Fahrenheit), snow can occur.
  • The snow will fall to the ground if the temperature is at or below freezing.
  • When snowflakes enter this layer of higher temperature, they start to melt.
  • This melting causes evaporative cooling, which cools the air right around the snowflake.
  • Melting is delayed by cooling. Snow won't, however, often form unless the ground temperature is at least 5 degrees Celsius (41 degrees Fahrenheit).
