    • Skred og skredforskning i Norge 

      Bakkehøi, Steinar (Chapter, 1999)
      Siden man begynte offentlig registrering over årsak til dødsulykker i 1835, har ca. 1500 mennesker satt livet til i ulykker som skyldes snøskred eller sørpeskred i Norge. I Alpelandene var man også vel vant med den hvite ...

    • Slushflow Formation, Flow Regimes and Consequences (Short Version) 

      Hestnes, Erik; Bakkehøi, Steinar; Kristensen, Krister (The International Snow Science Workshop (ISSW) Proceedings;, Chapter, 2012)
      The term ‘slushflow’ was introduced by Washburn and Goldthwait (1958). Eight people perished in slushflows during the winters 2010 and 2011 in Norway, five in backcountry, two in their home and one truck-driver. Buildings, ...

    • Slushflow hazard prediction and warning 

      Hestnes, Erik; Bakkehøi, Steinar (Journal article, 2004)
      Parameters critical to slushflow release have been studied during 11 winters in Rana, North Norway. Slushflows occurred during 16 periods within the research areas and during another 13 in the district. A noticeable rise ...

    • A synoptic climatology of major avalanche winters in Norway 

      Fitzharris, Blair; Bakkehøi, Steinar (Journal article, 1986)
      A near continuous record of avalanche deaths in Norway is compiled for 130 years from 1855, and shows a distinct downward trend, but large variations from winter to winter, with a periodicity of 12–13 years. Twelve major ...

    • Weather and snowpack conditions essential to slushflow release and downslope propagation 

      Hestnes, Erik; Bakkehøi, Steinar; Sandersen, Frode (The International Snow Science Workshop (ISSW) Proceedings;, Chapter, 1994)
      Rapid mass movement of water-saturated snow, usually known as slushflow or slush avalanche, is a major natural hazard in Norway. Slushflows occur in winter during heavy rainfall, as well as due to intense thaw in spring. ...
