Microfracture for full‐thickness chondral lesions of the knee in elite athletes leads to high return‐to‐play rates

Knee Surgery, Sports Traumatology, Arthroscopy, Volume 34, Issue 7, Page 2352-2358, July 2026.
Abstract Purpose Injuries to the knee are common in elite athletes and often involve damage to the articular cartilage. Given the high demands of elite sport, full‐thickness articular cartilage defects in the knee can be career‐limiting or threatening.

Effects of alpine ski course program on attitudes towards alpine skiing

Kinesiology : international journal of fundamental and applied kinesiology, 2014
The purpose of the study was to examine potential differences between male and female alpine ski naive young people in attitudes towards alpine skiing before and after the completion of structured alpine ski school program. We included 136 ski beginners (41 women and 95 men) who anonymously filled out a previously validated 26-item Lickert scale-type ...

Assessing habitat suitability for black grouse broods at the bioregional scale

Wildlife Biology, Volume 2026, Issue 4, July 2026.
The black grouse Lyrurus tetrix, a galliform species emblematic of the European Alps, is currently threatened by habitat change, particularly given the closure of heathland linked to the rising tree line at higher altitudes. The presence of heathlands in good ecological condition is, however, imperative for the species' reproduction.

Seismo‐Acoustic Characterization and Array Processing of Dry‐ and Wet‐Snow Avalanches

Journal of Geophysical Research: Earth Surface, Volume 131, Issue 7, July 2026.
Abstract Snow avalanches generate complex seismic and infrasound signals influenced by terrain, snow properties, flow regime, and avalanche size. In this controlled field study, we analyzed the seismo‐acoustic characteristics of three avalanches that released along the same path in the Dischma valley above Davos, Switzerland.

A protracted phenology: Post‐diapause larval development of a threatened butterfly

Insect Conservation and Diversity, Volume 19, Issue 4, Page 859-872, July 2026.
Larval survival during diapause was high; hibernaculum webs were mostly located near Succisa pratensis plants, which often retained vital leaves through winter. Post‐diapause developmental time varied strongly depending on exposure to different microclimates, being reduced by litter cover, solar radiation and a higher heat load index.

IS SPECIFIC MOTOR TEST ENOUGH TO EVALUATE NEW ALPINE SKI KNOWLEDGE IN SKI BEGINNERS?

Annales Kinesiologiae, 2017
The present research aims at determining whether the results of specific motor tests (continuous lateral jumps in dictated tempo − SKILJ) are a sufficient measure to evaluate the level of acquired alpine ski knowledge of ski beginners.
