The physical risk from snow avalanches poses a serious threat to mountain backcountry travelers. Avalanche risk is primarily managed by (1) assessing avalanche hazard through analysis of the local weather, snowpack, and recent avalanche activity and

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,

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

In the majority of fatal snow avalanches, skiers and snowmobilers trigger the avalanche by applying load to the snow cover. The snow cover is often tested to learn information about its stability on surrounding slopes. This testing is normally perfor
