The Life-Span of a Small High Mountain Lake, the Vordere Blaue Gumpe in the Bavarian Alps
Sediment Dynamics and the Hydromorphology of Fluvial Systems (Proceedings of a symposium held in 72 Dundee, UK, July 2006). IAHS Publ. 306, 2006. The life-span of a small high mountain lake, the Vordere Blaue Gumpe in the Bavarian Alps DAVID MORCHE1, CHRISTIAN KATTERFELD2, SEBASTIAN FUCHS1 & KARL-HEINZ SCHMIDT1 1 Department of Geography, Martin-Luther-University Halle-Wittenberg, D-06099 Halle, Germany [email protected] 2 Department of Geography, University of Basel, Klingelbergstrasse 27, CH-4056 Basel, Switzerland Abstract The Reintal valley in the Wetterstein Mountains in Upper Bavaria has been dammed by large rockslide deposits in some localities. Behind one of the dams a small lake, the Vordere Blaue Gumpe, was still in existence until 23 August 2005. The lake was a natural sediment sink, decoupling an area of about 1.6 km2 from fluvial sediment export out of the sediment cascade of the Reintal valley. The bergsturz event occurred about 200 years ago. It was dated by evaluating historical maps, paintings, photographs and sketches. Present research is focused on multi-temporal changes of the alluvial deposits of the delta by analysis of aerial photos and geodetic surveying. Volume loss of the lake is closely related to bed load input during extreme events and shows the geomorphic coupling of hillslope and channel systems. From regression analyses of the annual volumetric change of the lake volume, the life-expectancy of the lake was estimated to be about 15 years, before an extreme high magnitude event in August 2005 filled the lake completely with sediment. Now, after the filling of the lake, with the coupling of the catchment area of the Vordere Blaue Gumpe to downstream fluvial sediment export, higher solid load transport is expected in the lower reaches with possible negative effects on infrastructure.

Welcome to Alpenwelt Karwendel! These two mountain bikers have had a good laugh. They are returning from a break at Vereiner Alm. In the deep south of Germany, at the border with Austria, a pleasant valley with undula- ting meadows, lakes and streams extends between rocky peaks, forested mountain flanks and hills. Alpenwelt Karwendel with the three Upper Bavarian municipalities of Mittenwald, Krün and Wallgau is surrounded by four mountain massifs: the Karwendel mountains and the Soiern group to the East, the Ester mountains to the North and the Wetterstein mountains to the South-West. Because of this, the region is the ideal starting point for all kinds of mountain bike and cycling tours. If you like to take it easy, you can linger in the valley between the flower meadows, lakes and the expansive river landscape of the Isar with its shingle and gravel banks. If you prefer the forested foothills, explore the Ester mountains and the Soiern group with their shady forest roads and single trails.

High Resolution Quantification of Slope–Channel Coupling in an Alpine Geosystem
300 Sediment Dynamics for a Changing Future (Proceedings of the ICCE symposium held at Warsaw University of Life Sciences - SGGW, Poland, 14–18 June 2010). IAHS Publ. 337, 2010. High resolution quantification of slope–channel coupling in an alpine geosystem MARTIN BIMBÖSE, KARL-HEINZ SCHMIDT & DAVID MORCHE Institute for Geosciences, Martin-Luther-University Halle-Wittenberg, 06099 Halle/Saale, Germany [email protected] Abstract Fluvial sediment transport in alpine rivers is strongly connected to available sediment which comes from slope source areas (talus and debris cones). Consequently, the quantification of slope–channel coupling in terms of sediment supply to the river is a major task for fluvial sediment budget studies. Sometimes, the more interesting and useful study sites are located in dangerous areas and field work is difficult, if not impossible. Due to the emerging technology of laser-scanning (both terrestrial and airborne) it is now possible to obtain high resolution earth surface data for use in sediment budget studies. The Reintal Valley (Bavarian Alps) is a natural high-mountain laboratory where sediment transport processes and slope– channel coupling can be studied in detail. Due to a 2005 dam-break flood, the river system is in a state of disequilibrium, making it an exceptional study site for investigating these processes. The sediment flux from the sources to the river channel was quantified by using the innovative terrestrial laser-scanning (TLS) methodology. During the 2008 field season the sediment sources fed the Partnach River with more than 2600 t of sediment. Only a minor part was transported as bed load.
