3-2-1-launch! 🚀

By recording and modeling the trajectories of bright orange concrete boulders equipped with high-tech sensors, 🇨🇭 @SLFDavos researchers can create hazard indication maps of the Swiss mountains. ⛰️

#RAMMS XChange is back! We recently met with #rockfall practitioners from Switzerland, Germany and Austria to talk about upcoming features of RAMMS::Rockfall and the current challenges of hazard mapping and risk assessment. More: https://t.co/V6TZrnn7vu

Really nice work by François Noël with the help of some of our thrown rocks at Chant Sura, Flüelapass, Switzerland. Was an honour having you!

Welcome back @UNISvalbard. Contributing to the course AT-301 "Arctic Infrastructures in a Changing Climate" with #RAMMS theoretical and practical lessons. And our black box of hell - aka heavy field work equipment - finally made it, too... Fieldwork secured. Yay!

Rockfall experiments go into the forest... Check this out!
Nice work, Adi! Data on @EnvidatService @SLFDavos

The winter is not gone yet... Granulometry and field site study at Grüenbödeli today...
A field trip, however small, always helps chasing the inner processes of avalanche formation and rethinking the theories...

About last week's #rockfallexperiments...
We threw everything in we had. Looks like we were rewarded. Detailed analysis under way.

Small coverage about our ongoing work to advance RAMMS::AVALANCHE to powder avalanches. In Romontsch, our 4th National language, to challenge your interdisciplinarity or to put a new language on your lockdown to-do bucket list...

Powder cloud dammage on a roughly 15 cm wide larch on an avalanche track from 1st February above Davos. Perfect natural sensors to calibrate our powder avalanche module.

A few impressions of our @Innosuisse project with the Swiss flexible rockfall barrier manufacturer @geobrugg. Mainly in German, nit the images speak their universal language...

Different year with lots of new boundary conditions... Nonetheless, we are also not letting 2020 go by untested... These beauties are waiting for tomorrows rock rolling test of the installed @geobrugg rockfall barrier at our Chant Sura test site. #dataforcalibration #RAMMS
