摘要: |
This paper presents computer tools and models developed at the Swiss Federal Institute for Snow and Avalanche Research and used by authorities in charge of avalanche safety in Switzerland. The tools are: the statistical model of local avalanche danger NXD-Lawinen which searches a data base for similar situations in the past and presents the associated avalanche activity; the snow cover model SNOWPACK, simulating the detailed structure of the snow cover; the avalanche dynamics model AVAL-ID calculating runout distances and impact pressures associated with powder and dense-flow avalanches; and the InfoBOX, an information system connecting specialists throughout Switzerland and collecting weather and snow data from different sources. |
