    The effect of ambient air temperature on meltwater production and flow dynamics in snow avalanches

    Snow avalanche run-out is controlled by flow regime, which is heavily dependent on snow temperature and water content. Existing avalanche models calculate temperature change and snow melting arising from frict...

    Mitigation effects of trees on rockfall hazards: does rock shape matter?

    Does rock shape matter to the mitigation effects of trees on rockfall hazards? This question must be resolved in order to better quantify the protective role of mountain forests against rockfall. To probe this...

    Modelling rockfall impact with scarring in compactable soils

    An accurate modelling of rockfall runout continues to be a demanding challenge within the geotechnical and hazards engineering community. Most existing rockfall dynamic programs apply effective restitution coe...

    Measurements of hillslope debris flow impact pressure on obstacles

    We present measurements of hillslope debris flow impact pressures on small obstacles. Two impact sensors have been installed in a real-scale experimental site where 50 m3 of water-saturated soil material are rele...
