Conditions will be encountered in mountains that have a significant effect on. military operations. Mountain operations require, among other things^ special equipment, special training and acclimatization, and a high decree of self-discipline if operations are to succeed. Mountains of military significance are generally characterized by rugged compartmented terrain witn\steep slopes and few natural or manmade lines of communication. Weather in these mountains is seasonal and reaches across the entireSspectrum from extreme cold, with ice and snow in most regions during me winter, to extreme heat in some regions during the summer. AlthoughNthese extremes of weather are important planning considerations, the variability of weather over a short period of time—and from locality to locahty within the confines of a small area—also significantly influences tactical operations. Historically, the focal point of mountain operations has been the battle to control the heights. Changes in weaponry and equipment have not altered this fact. In all but the most extreme conditions of terrain and weather, infantry, with its light equipment and mobility, remains the basic maneuver force in the mountains. With proper equipment and training, it is ideally suited for fighting the close-in battfe commonly associated with mountain warfare. Mechanized infantry can\also enter the mountain battle, but it must be prepared to dismount and conduct operations on foot.

Current glacier recession causes significant rockfall increase: the immediate paraglacial response of deglaciating cirque walls Ingo Hartmeyer1, Robert Delleske1, Markus Keuschnig1, Michael Krautblatter2, Andreas Lang3, Lothar Schrott4, and Jan-Christoph Otto3 1GEORESEARCH Research Institute, Wals, Austria 2Chair of Landslide Research, Technical University of Munich, Munich, Germany 3Department of Geography and Geology, University of Salzburg, Salzburg, Austria 4Department of Geography, University of Bonn, Bonn, Germany Correspondence: Ingo Hartmeyer ([email protected]) Received: 4 February 2020 – Discussion started: 9 March 2020 Revised: 25 June 2020 – Accepted: 16 July 2020 – Published: 11 September 2020 Abstract. In the European Alps, almost half the glacier volume has disappeared over the past 150 years. The loss is reflected in glacier retreat and ice surface lowering even at high altitude. In steep glacial cirques, surface lowering exposes rock to atmospheric conditions probably for the very first time in several millennia. Instability of rockwalls has long been identified as one of the direct consequences of deglaciation, but so far cirque-wide quantification of rockfall at high resolution is missing. Based on terrestrial lidar, a rockfall inventory for the permafrost-affected rockwalls of two rapidly deglaciating cirques in the Central Alps of Austria (Kitzsteinhorn) is established. Over 6 years (2011–2017), 78 rockwall scans were acquired to generate data of high spatial and temporal resolution. Overall, 632 rockfalls were registered, ranging from 0.003 to 879.4 m3, mainly originating from pre-existing structural rock weaknesses.

  • Berner Oberland 4 X 4000 Mit Finsteraarhorn
    Berner Oberland 4 x 4000 mit Finsteraarhorn Oberland Traversierung mit Mönch, Jungfrau und Finsteraarhorn Der Grosse Aletschgletscher mit dem Jungfraufirn ist der mächtigste Gletscher der Alpen. Das Eis ist am Konkordiaplatz noch gut 800 Meter dick! Der Blick schweift über weite Gletscherflächen und Sie bewegen sich in einer Atmosphäre arktischer Strenge. Der ebene und breite Gletscherstrom ist umgeben von den höchsten Gipfeln des Berner Oberlandes, die weit in den blauen Sommerhimmel ragen. Sie wandern auf einem schier endlos scheinenden Glet- scherstrom, der eine wohltuende Ruhe ausstrahlt, von Hütte zu Hütte. Viermal haben Sie dabei die Möglichkeit auf über 4000 Meter hohe Berge zu klettern und dort oben den Alltag weit hinter sich zu lassen. Von Grindelwald aus besteigen Sie zu Beginn der Reise die bekanntesten Gletscherberge des Gebie- tes – den Mönch (4099 m) und die Jungfrau (4158 m). Im Zentrum der Gletscherströme liegt die Kon- kordiahütte (2850 m) beeindruckend über dem Grossen Aletschgletscher. Von hier klettern Sie über steile Firnflanken und wunderbaren Fels auf das versteckte Gross Grünhorn (4043 m). In Schleifen führt der Weg weiter über den spaltenreichen Fieschergletscher, bevor Sie die Sonnen- terasse der neuen Finsteraarhornhütte (3048 m) erwartet. Die Hütte ist noch fast neu und bietet ange- nehmen Komfort. Freuen Sie sich dann am nächsten Morgen auf die wunderbaren Kletterpassagen im griffigen Fels des Finsteraarhorns (4273 m), dem höchsten Berner Oberländer. Nach Rückkehr von der Tour werden Sie auf der Sonnenterrasse liegend, noch lange in Gedanken dort oben sein… Zur Abrundung Ihrer Reise in diese monumentale Landschaft der Gletscher und Himmelsberge, erwar- tet Sie ein langer, intensiver Rückweg in die Zivilisation.
