[Large-scale avalanches observed in the Uonuma = Minamiuonuma District of Niigata Prefecture in the winter of 2005 to 2006] / Makoto Machida, Takashi Machida, Norio Hayakawa.
Title: | [Large-scale avalanches observed in the Uonuma = Minamiuonuma District of Niigata Prefecture in the winter of 2005 to 2006] / Makoto Machida, Takashi Machida, Norio Hayakawa. |
Translated title: | Large-scale avalanches observed in the Uonuma = Minamiuonuma District of Niigata Prefecture in the winter of 2005 to 2006. |
Author(s): | Machida, Makoto. Machida, Takashi. Hayakawa, Norio. |
Date: | 2011. |
Language: | Japanese. |
In: | Journal of Snow Engineering of Japan. (2011.), Vol. 27(3) (2011) |
Abstract: | Presents detailed study of three large-scale avalanches; two dry-snow and one wet-snow. Dry-snow avalanches occurred on coldest day of winter and were generated in summit region at over 1000-m elevation. One of these had similar precedent during severe winter of 1984. Compares meteorological data for two winters to show similar heavy snow storms preceding both avalanches. Discusses possibility of prediction presented. Examines wet-snow avalanche of April 2006, based on snow-pit study and meteorological data showing evidence of formation of ice sheet in snow layer. |
