Forecasting of Volcanic–Flow Tsunamis Through Integrated Data From Laboratory Experiments and the 2019–2021 Stromboli Events, Italy

open access: yesJournal of Geophysical Research: Oceans, Volume 131, Issue 5, May 2026.
Abstract Stromboli, Italy, is a unique volcano worldwide with near‐continuous eruptions monitored by a multi‐sensor network. Between 2019 and 2021, three events produced pyroclastic density currents along the Sciara del Fuoco that entered the sea and generated tsunamis, providing a unique data set linking flow dynamics to tsunami generation near the ...

Experimental investigation of dielectric properties of seasonal snow at field observatories in the northwest Himalaya

open access: yesAnnals of Glaciology, 2016
Radio-echo sounding techniques are very useful for fast profiling of seasonal snowpack. Ground-penetrating radar (GPR) is used widely for various cryospheric applications, such as snow/glacier depth estimation, snow layer identification and snow water ...

Population Genomics of a Cosmopolitan Weed Provides Insights Into Its Local Adaptation and Recent Demographic History

open access: yesMolecular Ecology, Volume 35, Issue 10, May 2026.
ABSTRACT Invasive plant species present a growing ecological and economic challenge, and often adapt rapidly to their novel environments through complex demographic and evolutionary processes. Invasion genomics offers powerful tools to disentangle these processes, but most studies rely on geographically narrow sampling across native and non‐native ...

Impact of climate change on snow avalanche activity in the Swiss Alps [PDF]

open access: yesThe Cryosphere
The cryosphere in mountain regions is rapidly transforming due to climate change, yet the impact of these changes on snow avalanche activity remains uncertain.

How Volume Increases the Mobility of Geophysical Granular Flow: A Unified Rheological Perspective

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 8, 28 April 2026.
Abstract Geophysical granular flows, involving rapidly flowing granular materials, can exhibit volume‐enhanced mobility. Lacking a mechanistic understanding of such size effects limits the applications of lab‐scale findings to natural events. Using discrete element method simulations, we find that increasing granular system size suppresses energy ...

The source, quantity, and spatial distribution of interfacial water during glide-snow avalanche release: experimental evidence from field monitoring [PDF]

open access: yesThe Cryosphere
Glide-snow avalanches release at the soil–snow interface due to a loss friction which is suspected to be linked to interfacial water. Presently, the formation and distribution of the interfacial water are not well understood and glide-snow avalanches are

Snow Avalanches

open access: yes, 2004
Snow avalanches represent a threat to societies in many countries of the world. In America, Asia, Australia, and Europe, several mountainous countries are affected by this type of natural hazard. People, housing areas, communication lines, ski areas, animals, and woodland are subjected to the threat of snow avalanches.

A study on the size of snow particles in powder-snow avalanches [PDF]

open access: yesAnnals of Glaciology, 2001
AbstractIn this work, we study the size of the particles involved in a powder-snow avalanche. To determine this value, we study all the phenomena encountered by the particles before they arrive in the “body” of the avalanche. We study the boundary layer which is at the bottom of the avalanche. We determine, with the help of experimental data, the range
