Transportation Avalanche Research Pool (TARP) 2 |
摘要: |
Avalanche forecasting and mitigation are critical operations for transportation agencies that manage highways and railways that are exposed to avalanches. These operations are an important part of winter operations in many western states and have large implications for public and workers safety. The current Transportation Avalanche Research Pooled (TARP) Fund project (TPF – 5(337)) is ending, and the next phase of pooled fund work will begin under this new solicitation. This new TARP project will maintain the original mission of supporting collaborative research efforts toward avalanche hazard assessment and mitigation within the transportation industry. The goals are to improving public and worker safety, improve operational efficiency, improve and develop informational analysis tools, and explore beneficial avalanche technologies and techniques. |
