thermodynamics

At this time of the year, there are interesting lessons in thermodynamics to be learned. Slight variations in temperature, angle of the sun, shade, reflection, etc., cause the snow pack to melt more or less rapidly. So why is the snow on the right hand bench melting more rapidly than on the left? I'm hoping some of the naturalists out there will hazard a guess. Shawn?
