Long-term changes of the global climate system have been observed. However, the effect of long-term changes in the climate system on avalanche hazard in mountainous areas remains inconclusive. For this study we analyzed long-term weather, snow cover,

Avalanche danger is often estimated based on snow cover stratigraphy and snow stability data. In Canada, single forecasting regions are very large (>50 000 km2) and snow cover data are often not available. To provide additional information on the sno

The Greenland ice sheet (GrIS) is known to be contributing to sea level rise in a warming climate. The snow cover on the ice sheet is the direct link between a potentially warmer atmosphere and the ice itself. However, little is known about the micro

Predicting the spatial distribution and persistence of buried surface hoar layers is important when evaluating avalanche hazard. This study used weather-based models to predict the formation of surface hoar and investigated how buried layers change o

In the majority of fatal avalanches, skiers and snowmobilers apply load to the snow cover which triggers the initial failure in a weak layer. Understanding how the stress due to the dynamic surface load transmits through the snow cover can help peopl

Spatial variations of weak layer and slab properties are believed to affect snow slope stability. To quantify spatial variability at the slope scale, penetration resistance was measured with a high-resolution snow micro-penetrometer (SMP) in a partly

Snow slope stability evaluation is often based on a single test location within a slope. However, we know that snow cover properties and stability may vary at the slope scale. Reliably estimating the slope-scale variability requires many samples, ide

Compression tests are snow stability tests that are widely used by avalanche professionals and snow researchers to identify potential weak snowpack layers. Describing fracture character in addition to the number of taps required to initiate a fractur

Information on snow-cover stability is important for predicting avalanche danger. Traditionally, stability evaluation is based on manual observations of snow stratigraphy and stability tests, which are time-consuming. The SnowMicroPen (SMP) is a high

Variations of snow surface and snowpack properties affect avalanche formation. In up to four north-facing slopes above the tree line near Davos, Switzerland, snow surface properties were characterized. Penetration resistance was measured with a snow
