  • THE ENGADINE by Ramias Steinemann
    16.7.2014 - ISSUE 13 - WATER - STEINEMANN RAMIAS - ESSAYS, STUDIO THE ENGADINE by Ramias Steinemann The Valley of the Engadin begins at the Maloja mountain pass with a chain of lakes running southwest to northeast: " Lej da Segl ", " Lej da Silvaplauna " , and " Lej da San Murezzan " . Maloja is a watershed dividing the river " Inn " flowing via the Danube to the Black Sea and the " Maira " via the Po to the Mediterranean Sea. With the Maira to the Southwest the Val Bregagila drops precipitously down to Chiavenna in Italy while to the north east with the "Inn" the upper-engadine slowly goes down as an open valley towards St.Moritz and to the more narrow lower-engadine . History Around 1800 the southern part of Graubünden, the Veltlin being excluded from the canton. The Engadine lost with this closely linked breadbasket also its traditional way of live. Let to itself this high lying valley could not live from farming itself anymore. An early invention to attract people or income was the reanimation oft he St.Moritz springs that had been praised already by Paracelsus in 1538. In fact, the extension of the springs had startet with the first "Kurhaus" 1815 and its enlargement in 1856. The Neue Kurhaus was the first veritable Grand Hotel in the Upper Engadin. Like the subsequent buildings of its type, the Neue Kurhaus was designed to satisfy all the requirements of a demanding clientele in a single establishment. This was one of the initial moment of tourism in the Alpine region.The sports-oriented winter tourism began in the 1880s.

Among the historical reports are Reviewed by: many tsunamis in Swiss lakes that have been triggered both by subaerial and subaqueous Emily Margaret Lane, mass movements (SAEMM and SAQMM). In this study, we present a simplified National Institute of Water and Atmospheric Research (NIWA), classification of lakes with respect to their relative tsunami potential. The classification New Zealand uses basic topographic, bathymetric, and seismologic input parameters to assess the Jia-wen Zhou, Sichuan University, China relative tsunami potential on the 28 Swiss alpine and perialpine lakes with a surface area Carl Bonnevie Harbitz, >1km2. The investigated lakes are located in the three main regions “Alps,”“Swiss Norwegian Geotechnical Institute, Plateau,” and “Jura Mountains.” The input parameters are normalized by their range and a Norway k-means algorithm is used to classify the lakes according to their main expected tsunami *Correspondence: Michael Strupler source.
