Today was a scrubby day... Fighting through lying tree vegetation searching our pink pebbles... #rockfallexperiments #forest #naturalhazards #RAMMS #dataforcalibration

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

A tiny contribution to a nicely filmed and executed #TerraX documentary from ZDF with our Geobrugg #rockfallbarrier #experiments. (from 36:46 min) zdf.de/dokumentation/…

Installation of our deadwood sections to the Grüenbödeli avalanche track... Now hoping for snow and some force measurements... #RAMMS #officewithaview #dataforcalibration

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... Mit dem grössten Helikopter der Schweiz gegen Steinschläge tagesanzeiger.ch/mit-dem-groess…

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. #RAMMS #dataforcalibration #forestdestructionforcalibration #officewithaview

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... #RAMMS rtr.ch/play/tv/redire…

About last week's #rockfallexperiments... We threw everything in we had. Looks like we were rewarded. Detailed analysis under way. #dataforcalibration #RAMMS WSL Umweltforschung @wslresearch.bsky.social 📷 by Matthias Paintner

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... #RAMMS #AcademicTwitter #dataforcalibration

As climate change thaws mountain tops, risks of rockfalls surge. My story with ⁦Yereth Rosen⁩ and insights from ⁦@SLFDavos⁩ ⁦University of Zurich⁩ ⁦Dave Petley⁩ #earthday #climatechange reut.rs/3sszzEs

A new study in the Swiss Alps gives unprecedented insight into the rock shape dependence in rockfall hazard assessment. @SLFDavos WSL Umweltforschung @wslresearch.bsky.social Andrin Caviezel go.nature.com/3tTQWQR

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

Welcome back UNIS. 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!

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!

Digitizing deadwood logs for efficient scenario building in #rockfall #naturalhazard simulations.

Is a surfing rock a modelling nightmare? Not with RAMMS::Rockfall! Check details of the Monte Spico (I) event at ramms.slf.ch/en/modules/roc…

4/7⭐️#SAR_STAR using #DInSAR and the RAMMS::ROCKICE module @DasserGwen can identify potentially failing features & model exemplary cases. Check out 👀 Dasser et al., 2023 for more details: dgpf.de/src/tagung/jt2…

#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: slf.ch/de/veranstaltu… WSL Umweltforschung @wslresearch.bsky.social

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. ⛰️ Rock on and read more ➡️ ow.ly/yr9H50TOCIM
