Title: The Role of Slope Angle, Ground Roughness and Stauchwall Strength in the Formation of Glide-Snow Avalanches in Forest Gaps
Date: 2013-10-07
Authors: T. Feistl, P. Bebi, P. Bartelt
Description: Mountain forests are a cost-efficient measure to prevent the release of glide-snow avalanches. However, avalanches still release in forest gaps. Well-...
