Main publication details
MARC recordInfluence of strong winds on snow distribution and avalanche activity / R. Meister.
| Title: | Influence of strong winds on snow distribution and avalanche activity / R. Meister. |
| Author(s): | Meister, R. |
| Date: | 1989. |
| In: | Annals of Glaciology. (1989.), Vol. 13 (1989) |
| Abstract: | Previous studies showed that indirect snow-cover data may influence calculated avalanche runout distances. Examines two aspects of this finding in Davos area in relation to mountain winds: determination of snowpack increment layer caused by snowfalls in area, and estimation of most likely snow-slab area. |
| Notes: | Annals of Glaciology. Vol. 13 :195-201 (1989). |
| Keywords: | 551.578.48 -- Avalanches. E10 -- Glaciology: snow and avalanches. (494) -- Switzerland. |
