The main objective of the thesis is to improve our understanding of faceting occuring in dry snow metamorphism. The thesis focuses on the interplay between heat and mass diffusion and kinetic effects in the context of snow. For the first time,Diffraction Contrast Tomography (DCT) has been performed to monitor an experiment of temperature gradient metamorphism. The technique permits to retrieve the crystalline orientation of the grains constituting the microstructcure of the sample. Links between orientation of crystals and mass fluxres were analysed.The study shows that kinetic differences between basal and prismatic faces have effects on phase change fluxes at the ice/air interface.From a numerical modeling point of view, a highly anisot...
