The characteristic distance for these phenomena can be calculated using the Bakkehoi-Domaas-Lied method or from the one-dimensional Voellmy model.
The characteristic distance for these phenomena can be calculated using the Bakkehoi-Domaas-Lied method or from the one-dimensional Voellmy model. The Ryggfonn Experimental Site was created to study these. Exceptionally powerful ones can cause frictionite to form. The lower fracture surfaces that they form are called stauchwalls, while the corresponding upper surface is the crown. Surface hoar failure can lead to them, as can excessive cornice mass. Slabs are generally the most dangerous type of these events. The behavior of these includes flow, loose, and powder. The paths that these events follow are called tracks, and their deposition areas are called run-out zones. For 10 points, name this form of mass wasting that is the sudden movement of snow down a slope, like a mountain.
