La construction du risque au prisme territorial : dans l'ombre de l'archétype alpin, les avalanches oubliées de moyenne montagne

Natures Sciences Sociétés, 2017
En France, le risque d'avalanche reste associé à la haute montagne, mais semble oublié dans les espaces de moyenne montagne. À partir des exemples de l'archétype alpin et du massif vosgien, cet article discute les mécanismes sociohistoriques ayant abouti

The experiences of dealing with consequences of an avalanche – surviving soldiers’ perspectives

International Journal of Qualitative Studies on Health & Well-Being, 2019
Purpose: The aim of the study was to explore and describe experiences of daily life after having experienced an avalanche three decades ago. Method: This paper presents a qualitative study of 12 male survivors of an avalanche during their military ...

Avalanches in magnetohydrodynamical simulations

Physical Review E
Scale invariance is a hallmark of many natural systems, including solar flares, where energy release spans a vast range of scales. Recent computational advances, at the level of both algorithmics and hardware, have enabled high-resolution magnetohydrodynamical (MHD) simulations to span multiple scales, offering new insights into magnetic energy ...

AVALANCHE

, 2022
Annotation: this article covers the types of rams, their classifications and what to do if they are left in the whirlpool of landslides, how to protect from them, as an unfortunate coincidence.

Improving Fully Distributed Snowpack Simulations by Mapping Perturbations of Meteorological Forcings Inferred From Particle Filter Assimilation of Snow Monitoring Data

Water Resources Research
Snow plays a crucial role in the water balance of mountainous regions by affecting the timing and magnitude of runoff and, thus, water availability and flood hazards.

Glide-snow avalanche characteristics at different timescales extracted from time-lapse photography

Annals of Glaciology
Glide-snow avalanches release due to a loss of friction at the snow–ground interface, which can result in large avalanches that endanger infrastructure in alpine regions.

[Avalanche accidents and treatment of avalanche victims].

Tidsskrift for den Norske laegeforening : tidsskrift for praktisk medicin, ny raekke, 2016
Avalanches may be provoked spontaneously or as a result of human activity, and they trigger the need for considerable rescue resources. Avalanche search and rescue operations are complex and characterised by physical and mental stress. The guidelines for resuscitation of avalanche victims may be perceived as complex and abstruse, which can lead to ...

The Performance Gains of Assimilating Limited Information Into a Fully Distributed Snowpack Model Depend on Model Complexity and Input Data Quality

Water Resources Research
Estimating snowpack conditions in mountainous regions is critical for water resource management, flood forecasting, and avalanche hazard mitigation. However, most snowpack observations lack either spatial or temporal resolution, while estimates from ...
