We estimate seasonal drifting snow sublimation at a study site in the Swiss Alps with the numerical model Alpine3D using external wind fields from the Advanced Regional Prediction System on a high-resolution grid (10 m). Novel in the field of snow transpor ...
Dynamic penetrometers reveal information about seafloor strength, stratification, stability, and sediment remobilization. However, positioning is often limited to a range of meters making it difficult to target small-scale geomorphologic features. Deployme ...

Drifting snow has a large influence on the mountain snow cover and the overlying atmospheric boundary layer. Consequently, drifting snow also affects avalanches, snow hydrology, vegetation and climate. Considerable effort is devoted to understanding the pr ...
The hydrology of high mountainous catchments is often predicted with conceptual precipitation-discharge models that simulate the snow accumulation and ablation behavior of a very complex environment using as only input temperature and precipitation. It is ...
