That seemed especially true this year when, following an extraordinarily balmy November, December and early-January, southern Ontario was suddenly blanketed by a series of heavy snowfalls. Immediately afterward the combined temperature-wind- chill plummeted to the -30" range. This not-quile coincidence is of huge importance to wildlife - much more than we humans (who live mostly in rather artificial shelters) realize. Wildflowers, ferns, reptiles and many amphibians, and a host of mammals all depend upon it. In significant measure, the forest and meadow communities of plants and animals we take for granted all year long are moulded by snow cover. Despite our impression that snow is 'freezing (even horrid) stuff', it SWIMMING POOL SALE. 1986 Inventory, Inventory, Ingrounds, Ongrounds, Aboveground», Save hundreds. Limited supply. Book early.

Although it does contain countless billions of ice crystals (snowflakes), over 90% of the blanket's volume is actually tiny pockets of trapped air. These act exactly like the "dead air" trapped in a layer of fibreglass; the thicker and fluffier the layer, the higher the temperature is held on the warm side. The warm side, in this case, is the ground, which acts as a huge heat "sink". Progressively warmed throughout the spring and summer, the ground slowly yields its stored heat (as well as the 'geothermal' heat working its way up from the earth's mantle throughout the winter. ' Above the snow, (or on bare surfaces surfaces like wind-blown fields), temperatures bounce wildly. They may go as high as 5°C or as low as -30, and temperatures often change 15" or more in a single day. Many plants and animals simply cannot survive such extreme cold .- their tissues are torn apart when the moisture in them freezes. . Above the snow layer, also, tempera! urc frequent ly pass through i he freezing point twice (or more) in a day. To many plants, repeated freezing and thawing does more damage/than one prolonged . cold period. But below the snow's insulating blanket, temperatures remain (relatively) warm and near- constant. Where snows are thin, the soil may stay lightly frozen all winter long. And in areas of deep snow (like dense woodlands, where tree trunks act to trap and to shade the snow) the soil surface may never actually fr.eeze. Here, in an eerie world of faint bluegreen light, fern and plant leaves sit in a state of deep refrigeration, while millipedes, centipedes and most of other invertebrates invertebrates move as though in slow motion. Thanks to the snow, next year's wildflowers - sitting now as bulbs and special rootstocks - continue developing., Reptiles--and frogs lie warm, using up slo.yyly their limited fat reserves. A multitude of invertebrates invertebrates - vital in recycling dead vegetation into next year's fertilizer - poise, awaiting the warmth which will reactivate them. And myriad small mammals - the meadow voles and mice, upon which fox, owls, coyote and other predators depend - continue to eat, breed and 'feed' the divèrse wildlife which makes Ontario's countryside so interesting.
