Debris flow monitoring Rauris
Abstract
Climate change is altering the geomorphological processes in high alpine regions. In the MurMo project, the Teufenbach and the Lachegggraben in the Rauristal, Salzburg, are being equipped with measuring stations by the Institute for Alpine Natural Hazards, University of Natural Resources and Life Sciences (BOKU) on behalf of the Forest Engineering Service for Torrent and Avalanche Control (WLV). The aim of the project is to document the activity of debris flows, the flow dynamics and the deposition geometries of debris flows and to prepare the data for the further development, testing and calibration of simulation models. The duration of the project is 3 years.
