PPT-Avalanche Risk

Terrain Susceptibility Kyle Renner GIS in Water Resources 2015 Avalanche Definition and Facts a rapid flow of snow down a sloping surface as a result of snowpack failure Failure occurs when load weight of snowpack exceeds strength. Does avalanche education really make a difference This study investigated the relationship between avalanche education and victim behavior in 344 recreational US accidents and found that victims with more avalanche training did in fact take fewer ov Why should we study this? .

Typically occurring in mountainous terrain. Where do avalanches occur ?. Avalanches occur on slopes between 25 to 50 degrees. Avalanches start most often on slopes above the timberline that face away from prevailing winds. . InGrid-TimePix. . detector. D. ATTIÉ. 1). , M. CAMPBELL. 2 ). , M. CHEFDEVILLE. 3). , P.
