Evaluation of probabilistic snow avalanche simulation ensembles with Doppler radar observations

Fischer, Jan-Thomas; Fromm, Reinhard; Gauer, Peter; Sovilla, Betty (Journal article, 2013)

In recent years snow avalanche simulation software, which is based on depth-averaged models operating in three-dimensional terrain, has gained importance. Simulations are used to plan protection measures. The software ...
Objective comparison of two to three dimensional avalanche model output and field data using the AIMEC approach

Fischer, Jan-Thomas; Fromm, Reinhard; Gauer, Peter; Sovilla, Betty (The International Snow Science Workshop (ISSW) Proceedings;, Chapter, 2012)

In recent years two to three dimensional avalanche simulation tools have gained importance to estimate the hazard. The models are optimized to determine run out distances of avalanches. However, technically dynamic models ...
Studies on the snow avalanche dynamics by the full-scale experiments

Nishimura, K.; Pérez-Guillén, Cristina; Ito, Yoichi; Yamaguchi, Satoru; Saito, Yoshihiko; Issler, Dieter; Fischer, Jan-Thomas (Lecture, 2018)

Systematic full-scale but small avalanche experiments have been started since 2016 in Niseko, a ski resort in Hokkaido, Japan. Although the vertical drop in the test sites are 100 to 200 m, they have advantages that we are ...
