Remote sensing of snow avalanches: Recent advances, potential, and limitations
(Journal article, 2015)Snow avalanches are the main natural hazard in snow covered mountainous areas worldwide, frequently threatening lives and infrastructure. Avalanche research is inherently risk research, working towards avalanche risk ... -
Remote-Sensing Derived Avalanche Inventory Data
(The International Snow Science Workshop (ISSW) Proceedings;, Chapter, 2012)Every year snow avalanches pose a significant threat to transportation infrastructure. The societal demand to minimize closures of the main transport network while maintaining an acceptable level of personal safety at the ... -
Remotely imaging seismic ground shaking via large-N infrasound beamforming
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023) -
Research on the relationship between urban form and urban smog in China
(Journal article, 2017)The present study aims at exploring whether aspects of urban form (compactness ratio and elongation ratio) are associated with urban smog (particulate matter) in China. Quantitative indicators relating to urban form and ... -
Reservoir assessment of Middle Jurassic sandstone-dominated formations in the Egersund Basin and Ling Depression, eastern Central North Sea
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2019)Reservoir quality assessment was conducted from petrophysical analysis and rock physics diagnostics on 15 wells penetrating Middle Jurassic sandstone reservoir formations in different regions of the eastern Central North ... -
Resistivity and chargeability survey for tunnel investigation: a case study on toxic black shale in Norway
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2017)In the past few years, the focus on Alum shale hazards and the need for efficient mapping tools have increased in Norway. Alum shale is highly toxic and poses a substantial obstacle to infrastructure development such as ... -

Response of marine benthic fauna to thin-layer capping with activated carbon in a large-scale field experiment in the Grenland fjords, Norway
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2017)A field experiment with thin-layer capping was conducted in the Grenland fjords, Norway, for remediation in situ of mercury and dioxin-contaminated sediments. Experimental fields at 30 and 95 m depth were capped with (i) ... -
Restoration of seagrass habitats: Effects of artificial and natural sediments on the development of transplanted eelgrass (Zostera marina)
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2023) -
Review of spatial variability of snowpack properties and its importance for avalanche formation.
(Journal article, 2008)The seasonal snow cover is spatially variable. Spatial variability of layer properties is due to various external and internal process drivers interacting with terrain and ground cover during and after the deposition ... -
Review of the Reclamation Techniques for Acid-Generating Mine Wastes upon Closure of Disposal Sites
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2016)Acid mine drainage (AMD) remains a major environmental challenge for the mining industry. The preferred options for effectively limiting the environmental impact of AMD consist in controlling the reactions through the use ... -
Revisiting interpretation of relative density from shallow depth CPTs in sand
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022) -
Rheology of a wet, fragmenting granular flow and the riddle of the anomalous friction of large rock avalanches
(Journal article, 2009)The effective friction coefficient of rock avalanches diminishes gradually as a function of the avalanche volume. Large rock avalanches can reach run-out distances as long as ten times the fall height, despite the fact ... -
