Avalanches in cardiology

open access: yesAnnals of Pediatric Cardiology, 2021
Sudden cardiac death (SCD) accounts for 15%–60% of mortality in patients with heart disease. Generally, this has been attributed to ventricular tachyarrhythmia. However, ventricular tachyarrhythmia has been documented or strongly suspected on clinical grounds in a relatively small proportion of SCD patients (8%–50%). Attempted

Soil erosion in an avalanche release site (Valle d'Aosta: Italy): towards a winter factor for RUSLE in the Alps [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Soil erosion in Alpine areas is mainly related to extreme topographic and weather conditions. Although different methods of assessing soil erosion exist, the knowledge of erosive forces of the snow cover needs more investigation in order to allow soil ...

Spatial Variability of Snow Water Equivalent – The Case Study from the Research Site in Khibiny Mountains, Russia

open access: yesJournal of Hydrology and Hydromechanics, 2019
The aim of the investigation was assessment of spatial variability of the characteristics of snowpack, including the snow water equivalent (SWE) as the main hydrological characteristic of a seasonal snow cover.

Emergence of Log-Normal Type Distributions in Avalanche Processes in Living Systems: A Network Model

open access: yesFrontiers in Applied Mathematics and Statistics, 2021
Actin is the major cytoskeletal protein of mammal cells that forms microfilaments organized into higher-order structures by a dynamic assembly-disassembly mechanism with cross-linkers.

Comparison of simulated powder snow avalanches with photogrammetric measurements

open access: yesAnnals of Glaciology, 2016
Photogrammetric measurements of powder-cloud surfaces from large avalanches enable the observation of cloud evolution and dispersion as well as quantification of cloud velocities and powder volumes. Since 2002, a total of six large powder avalanches have

Seismically Induced Snow Avalanches: The Central Italy Case

open access: yesFrontiers in Earth Science, 2020
Snow avalanches are critical events due to the sudden instability of snow in mountain regions. Seismically induced snow avalanches, due to a particular type of trigger perturbing snow-covered slopes, are occasional events in geodynamically active ...

Spectral measurements of surface hoar crystals

open access: yesJournal of Glaciology, 2017
Surface hoar crystals are common on the surface of mountain snow covers. Once buried, layers of large plate-shaped surface hoar crystals are prone to releasing dangerous snow-slab avalanches. Since snow microstructure influences the optical properties of

Estimation of Avalanche Hazard in the Settlement of Magurka using Elba+ Model / Posúdenie Ohrozenosti Osady Magurky Lavínami S Použitím Modelu Elba+

open access: yesGeoScience Engineering, 2013
V našej študií sme sa zamerali na moderné softvérové aplikácie umožňujúce simuláciu lavíny. Použili sme model ELBA+, pomocou ktorého sme snažili zhodnotiť ohrozenosť horského prostredia v okolí starej banskej osady Magurka (1 036 m n.
