• On full-scale avalanche measurements at the Ryggfonn test site, Norway. 

      Gauer, Peter; Issler, Dieter; Lied, Karstein; Kristensen, Krister; Iwe, H.; Lied, Erik; Rammer, L.; Schreiber, H. (Journal article, 2007)
      Avalanche measurements carried out at the Ryggfonn test site, Norway, during several winter seasons are analyzed with emphasis on recognizing different flow regimes and estimating flow densities. Measurements include impact ...
    • Snow avalanche speed determination using seismic methods 

      Vilajosana, I.; Khazaradze, G.; Suriñach, E.; Lied, Erik; Kristensen, Krister (Journal article, 2007)
      We present a new method to determine the average propagation speed of avalanches using seismic techniques. Avalanche propagation speeds can reach 70 m/s and more, depending on a wide range of factors, such as the characteristics ...
    • The upgraded full-scale avalanche test-site Ryggfonn, Norway. 

      Gauer, Peter; Breien, Hedda; Issler, Dieter; Kristensen, Krister; Kronholm, Kalle; Lied, Erik; Lied, Karstein (The International Snow Science Workshop (ISSW) Proceedings;, Chapter, 2010)
      Measurements of full-scale avalanches are expensive and time consuming, but are indispensable to gain in-depth understanding of the flow behavior of avalanches. They are needed to crosscheck the scaling used in small-scale ...
