    • Avalanche debris detection using satellite-borne radar and optical remote sensing 

      Eckerstorfer, Markus; Malnes, Eirik; Frauenfelder, Regula; Domaas, Ulrik; Brattlien, Kjetil (The International Snow Science Workshop (ISSW) Proceedings;, Chapter, 2014)
      The mountainous fjord landscape around Tromsø in Northern Norway is prone to high avalanche activity during the snow season. Large avalanches pose a hazard to infrastructure, such as buildings and roads, located between ...

    • The avalanche situation in a special winter. Review of the 09/10 season in Norway. 

      Jaedicke, Christian; Brattlien, Kjetil; Frauenfelder, Regula; Kristensen, Krister; Kronholm, Kalle (The International Snow Science Workshop (ISSW) Proceedings;, Chapter, 2010)
      The 2009/10 season featured significantly different snow conditions compared to the usually maritime snow pack in most of Norway. A stable high-pressure system over large parts of Europe led to low temperatures and limited ...

    • Dødsulykker i snøskred 2003-2013 

      Brattlien, Kjetil (NGI-rapport;20140053-02-R, Research report, 2016-09-02)
      Denne NGI-rapporten inneholder analyser av dødsulykker i snøskred i Norge i 10-årsperioden 2003-2013. Rapporten er utarbeidet innen prosjekt SP 4 FoU Snøskred 2014-2016.

    • Forecasting the fatal Longyearbyen avalanche. Possibilities and challenges 

      Jaedicke, Christian; Hestnes, Erik; Bakkehøi, Steinar; Mørk, Torgeir; Brattlien, Kjetil (The International Snow Science Workshop (ISSW) Proceedings;, Chapter, 2016)
      One of the main questions after the fatal avalanche in Longyearbyen in December 2015, where two persons perished and eleven houses were destroyed, was whether an active avalanche warning system would have identified the ...

    • Recommendation on how avoid Interference Issues in companion and organized avalanche rescue 

      Genswein, Manuel; Atkins, Dale; Obad, Joe; Grady, Emily; Piché, Marc; Guyn, Todd; Whelan, Rob; Brattlien, Kjetil (The International Snow Science Workshop (ISSW) Proceedings;, Chapter, 2013)
      Electronic avalanche rescue devices such as 457kHz transceivers and Recco are today the primary search tools in companion and organized rescue. The requirement for a long receive range in order to shorten rescue time asks ...

    • Regional avalanche warning in Norway, a new concept for a large country 

      Jaedicke, Christian; Bakkehøi, Steinar; Sandersen, Frode; Brattlien, Kjetil; Solheim, Anders (The International Snow Science Workshop (ISSW) Proceedings;, Chapter, 2008)
      Norway encompasses 324 000 km2 of land area of which ca. 7 % are mountainsides steeper than 30 degrees. The country extends approximately 1700 km from south to north and features extreme variations in normal precipitation ...

    • Skifulness - Accident prevention by finding happiness in less dangerous terrain 

      Brattlien, Kjetil (Lecture, 2018)

    • The SLAB test - The missing link in stability testing? 

      Brattlien, Kjetil; Ellevold, Jo Gunnar (The International Snow Science Workshop (ISSW) Proceedings;, Chapter, 2010)
      An avalanche is released when both the weak layer and the slab fails, still standard stability tests (e.g. CT, ECT) focus on the weak layer only. The SLAB test gives information on both the weak layer and the slab, hence ...

    • Snøskredulykke ved Haugastøl 2017-03-15 

      Brattlien, Kjetil (NGI-rapport;20170131-03-TN, Research report, 2018-01-12)

    • The Svalbard fatal accident 19th December 2015 - Assisting local authorities in the acute phase 

      Brattlien, Kjetil; Hestnes, Erik; Domaas, Ulrik (The International Snow Science Workshop (ISSW) Proceedings;, Chapter, 2016)
      The Svalbard fatal avalanche caused massive destruction when it hit part of the village Longyearbyen Saturday morning at the start of the Christmas holiday. The avalanche released after a furious storm and killed to persons, ...
