  • Permanet Final Conference

    Permanet Final Conference

    PermaNET Permafrost Long-term Monitoring Network Final Conference 2nd Circular June 28, 2011 – July 1, 2011 Centre de Congrés, Chamonix Mont-Blanc, France The PermaNET project Permafrost is highly sensitive to climatic changes. Permafrost degradation and related natural hazards affect traffic routes, tourism areas, settlements and infrastructures. The main problem is a lacking strategy for the consideration of these newly observed specific impacts of climate change in risk prevention and territorial development. With the joint development of a common strategy for dealing with permafrost and related hazards under changing climatic conditions and the creation of an Alpine- wide monitoring network the project aims at preventing natural hazards, at contributing to sustainable territorial development and at the implementation of good governance practices. Results of the PermaNET project are an Alpine-wide permafrost monitoring network, a permafrost map for the entire Alpine Space guidelines for the consideration of permafrost in natural hazard and risk management guidelines for the consideration of permafrost in water resources management. These results will be presented at the final project conference. The Alpine Space permafrost monitoring network PermaNET collected metadata of the most important permafrost monitoring sites and compiled it into a standardized permafrost monitoring network. On key monitoring sites, new monitoring stations have been installed and instrumented. PermaNET provides recommendations for policy-makers for building up national monitoring networks on national and regional scale and a handbook for the installation and maintenance of an Alpine-wide permafrost monitoring network with standards for data acquisition. Alpine Space permafrost map PermaNET collected and compiled permafrost evidences into an inventory of permafrost evidences and elaborated an Alpine-wide map of the permafrost distribution.

The speed with which the umbrellas were produced suggested that the routine was familiar. At Les Contamines, where we arrived the same evening, it was evident that there had been plenty of such weather, and storms never seemed very far away during the next two and a half weeks. But if it was a highly unsettled season, it was at least not an impossible one. like I954· Climbing of some kind was nearly always practicable, but it was never certain from day to day of what kind it would be.

    Recent Debris Flow Occurrences Associated with Glaciers in the Alps ⁎ Marta Chiarle A, , Sara Iannotti A, Giovanni Mortara A, Philip Deline B

    Global and Planetary Change 56 (2007) 123–136 www.elsevier.com/locate/gloplacha Recent debris flow occurrences associated with glaciers in the Alps ⁎ Marta Chiarle a, , Sara Iannotti a, Giovanni Mortara a, Philip Deline b a CNR‐IRPI, Strada delle Cacce, 73–10135 Torino, Italy b Laboratoire EDYTEM, CNRS‐Université de Savoie, 73376 Le Bouget‐du‐Lac, France Received 12 August 2005; accepted 21 July 2006 Available online 9 January 2007 Abstract Debris flows from glacier forefields, triggered by heavy rain or glacial outbursts, or damming of streams by ice avalanches, pose hazards in Alpine valleys (e.g. the south side of Mount Blanc). Glacier‐related debris flows are, in part, a consequence of general glacier retreat and the corresponding exposure of large quantities of unconsolidated, unvegetated, and sometimes ice‐cored glacial sediments. This paper documents glacier‐related debris flows at 17 sites in the Italian, French, and Swiss Alps, with a focus on the Italian northwest sector. For each case data are provided which describe the glacier and the instability. Three types of events have been recognized, based on antecedent meteorological conditions. Type 1 (9 documented debris flows) is triggered by intense and prolonged rainfall, causing water saturation of sediments and consequent failure of large sediment volumes (up to 800000 m3). Type 2 (2 debris flows) is triggered by short rainstorms which may destabilize the glacier drainage system, with debris flow volumes up to 100000 m3. Type 3 (6 debris flows) occurs during dry weather by glacial lake outbursts or ground/buried ice melting, with debris flow volumes up to 150000 m3.

    Val Ferret Pilot Action Region Grandes Jorasses

    Chapter Val Ferret Pilot Action Region: Grandes Jorasses Glaciers - An Open-Air Laboratory for the Development of Close-Range Remote Sensing Monitoring Systems Paolo Perret, Jean Pierre Fosson, Luca Mondardini and Valerio Segor Abstract The Val Ferret valley (Courmayeur, Aosta Valley, Italy) was included as a Pilot Action Region (PAR) of the GreenRisk4Alps project since it is both a famous tourist location and a high-risk area for all types of mass movement processes. Typical natural hazards that endanger this PAR are debris flows and avalanches, sometimes connected to ice collapses from the glaciers of the Mont Blanc massif. Thanks to the steep sides of the valley and widespread alluvial channels, these events can reach the valley floor, where public roads, villages and touristic attractions are located. This article presents the main challenges of natural hazard management in the Val Ferret PAR, as well as the role of forestry and protective forests in the Aosta Valley Autonomous Region. As an example of good practice, the monitoring systems of the Planpincieux and Grandes Jorasses glaciers are presented. Recently, these glaciers have become an open-air laboratory for glacial monitoring techniques. Many close- range surveys have been conducted here, and a permanent network of monitoring systems that measure the surface deformation of the glaciers is currently active. Keywords: Val Ferret, protective forest, Mont Blanc, Aosta Valley, monitoring, glacial hazards, remote sensing 1. Introduction Courmayeur (1,224 m asl) is a small mountain town located in the Aosta Valley Autonomous Region, in northwestern Italy. It is a famous tourist destination whose fame and history are largely related to the presence of the Mont Blanc massif, which is one of the most renowned attractions in the Alps.

In the last hundred years, two major ice-rock avalanche events took place on the Brenva Glacier involving volumes of more than 2×106 m3. In September 2016, a volume of 35’000 m3 detached from the previous rock avalanche scar and was deposited on the higher part of the Brenva Glacier. This new event has pushed Aosta Valley Autonomous Region authorities to investigate in more detail the “Sperone della Brenva” rock mass. Between July 2017 and October 2018, three Photogrammetric Points Clouds (PPCs) were generated using structure-from-motion techniques from hundreds of pictures taken during helicopter flights. The structural analysis of PPCs enabled to identify four major fracture sets in the rock avalanche scar. By fitting planes deeply along these fractures, different potentially unstable volumes were calculated and several scenarios were defined. During autumn 2017, deformation of the rock wall was also monitored with a ground-based InSAR system.
