New models improve predictions of snow, rock and ice avalanches

A new 3D simulation tool developed by ETH and SLF researchers now allows for significantly more accurate predictions of complex alpine mass movements, supporting alpine risk management.

The model produces the most accurate simulation of the disaster in Blatten.
