Title: | Medium-high mountain approach to avalnache risk: the Vosges range as a case of study (France) | Authors: | Giacona, Florie Martin, Brice |
Keywords: | Avalanche risk;representation;sluff;typology;vulnerability;hazard;Risque d’avalanche;représentation;coulée de neige;classification;vulnérabilité;aléa;Risco de avalanche;representação;“neve derretida”;tipologia;vulnerabilidade;processo perigoso | Issue Date: | 2009 | Publisher: | Associação Portuguesa de Riscos, Prevenção e Segurança | Abstract: | O inverno de 1999-2000 repentinamente reactualizou a discussão sobre o perigo de avalanche, subestimado,
esquecido ou até negado, mesmo sendo o risco natural mais mortal na Alsácia. Esta pesquisa interdisciplinar
acentuou os mais de 250 eventos de avalanche, do final do século XVIII até hoje. Esses eventos são recolocados
no contexto da variação climática e da evolução da ocupação dos solos. Também consideramos a tipologia
e a escala de intensidade das avalanches, especificamente, em relação às montanhas de média altitude. Por
fim, discutiremos o estado actual do risco de avalanche. L’hiver 1999-2000 a subitement réactualisé un risque d’avalanche sous-estimé, oublié, voire nié, bien qu’il représente le risque naturel le plus meurtrier en Alsace. Ce travail interdisciplinaire a mis à jour plus de 250 phénomènes avalancheux depuis la fin du XVIIIe siècle. Les événements sont replacés dans les contextes du changement climatique et de l’évolution de l’occupation des sols. Se pose également la question d’une typologie et d’une échelle d’intensité des avalanches spécifiques aux massifs de moyenne montagne. Enfin, nous discuterons de l’état actuel du risque d’avalanche. Although avalanche risk is the deadliest natural risk in Alsace, winter of 1999-2000 suddenly brought up this underestimated, forgotten, or even denied danger. This interdisciplinary research emphasized more than 250 avalanche events, from the end of the 18th century until today. We reset these events into the context of climatic variation and evolution of land occupation. We also considered a typology and a scale for avalanche intensity, specifically regarding medium-high mountains. Eventually we will discuss the current state of avalanche risk. |
