Glide-snow avalanche activity on Dorfberg, Davos, Switzerland

This dataset was described in the research article: Fees, A., van Herwijnen A., Altenbach, M., Lombardo, M., Schweizer, J.: Glide-snow avalanche characteristics at different time-scales extracted from time-lapse photography, Annals of Glaciology, 91 We extracted the dynamics of opening glide-cracks and the glide-snow avalanche activity from time-lapse photographs.

Glide-snow avalanches were separated into surface and interface events using the liquid water content which was simulated with SNOWPACK at 10 virtual stations on Dorfberg.
