EU programme CADZIE. New concepts in avalanche hazard mapping
(NGI-rapport;20001018-02, Research report, 2003-06-16)The main goal of the CADZIE workpackage 1 is to improve the hazard assessment process by integrating uncertainty and to develop "best-fit" models. This goal can only be achieved if both the stochastic characteristics of ... -
Significance of historical records for avalanche hazard zoning in Norway
(The International Snow Science Workshop (ISSW) Proceedings;, Chapter, 2000)In avalanche hazard zoning, it is common practice to investigate the previous avalanche history for the area considered. Historical observations of avalanches serve as an aid in the classification of the terrain, and may ... -
Slushflow hazard - where, why and when? 25 years of experience with slushflow consulting and research.
(Journal article, 1998)Slushflows — flowing mixtures of water and snow — are a major natural hazard in Norway. Knowledge gathered by the Norwegian Geotechnical Institute during 25 years of slushflow consulting and research is presented. The ... -
Slushflow hazard control. A review of mitigative measures.
(NGI Publication;203, Chapter, 1998)Slushflow hazard detection and control are based on both active and passive mitigative measures performed above and within the starting zones as well as along the path and in the runout zone. The main aim of preventive ... -
