Application of a regional approach for hazard mapping at an avalanche site in northern Italy [PDF]

Advances in Geosciences, 2008
The currently adopted approach to avalanche hazard mapping in northern Italy includes avalanche dynamic modelling, coupled with statistical analysis of snow depth at avalanche start. The 30-years and 300-years return period avalanches at a given site are
