Determination of avalanche magnitude and frequency by direct observations and/or with the aid of indirect snowcover data / Paul M.B. Föhn, R. Meister.
Title: | Determination of avalanche magnitude and frequency by direct observations and/or with the aid of indirect snowcover data / Paul M.B. Föhn, R. Meister. |
Author(s): | Föhn, Paul M. B. Meister, R. |
Date: | 1982. |
Publisher: | Wien: Forstliche Bundesversuchsanstalt |
Abstract: | Using example of Salezertobel avalanche, demonstrates how direct avalanche records and indirect climatological snow data may be combined for approximating runout distances of 30-, 50-, and 100-year return periods. recommends emphasis on analysis for direct observations to enable calibration of indirect procedures. |
Notes: | Offprint: Mitteilungen der Forstlichen Bundesversuchanstalt Wien; 144. Presented at IUFRO/FAO colloquium on research on small torrential watersheds (incl. avalanches), June 1981, Grenoble. |
