  • Distinguishing Ice-Rich and Ice-Poor Permafrost to Map Ground Temperatures
    The Cryosphere Discuss., https://doi.org/10.5194/tc-2018-235 Manuscript under review for journal The Cryosphere Discussion started: 7 January 2019 c Author(s) 2019. CC BY 4.0 License. Distinguishing ice-rich and ice-poor permafrost to map ground temperatures and -ice content in the Swiss Alps Robert Kenner1, Jeannette Noetzli1, Martin Hoelzle2, Hugo Raetzo3, Marcia Phillips1 1 WSL Institute for Snow and Avalanche Research SLF 5 2 University of Fribourg, Department of Geosciences 3 Federal Office for the Environment FOEN Correspondence to: Robert Kenner ([email protected]) Abstract. A new countrywide permafrost distribution map of Switzerland is presented, indicating ground temperatures and ice content. The new representation of ground temperatures is achieved by distinguishing ice-poor and ice-rich permafrost in 10 the modelling process. There is a very significant correlation of ground temperatures with elevation and potential incoming solar radiation in ice-poor and ice-free ground. The distribution of ice-rich permafrost was defined by modelling mass wasting processes and the integration of snow and ice into the ground caused by them. This dual approach allowed a clear improvement in the cartographic representation of permafrost-free elevational belts which are bordered above and below by permafrost. The reproduction of such commonly occurring permafrost gaps allowed a higher mapping accuracy and 15 unambiguity of the mapping zones. Permafrost occurrence is represented by two clearly defined classes: Zone 1 representing modelled ground temperatures and zone 2 indicating excess ground ice outside of zone 1. 58% of 92 validation sites could be definitively classified as having permafrost or no permafrost.

  • Moüjmtaiim Operations
    L f\f¿ áfó b^i,. ‘<& t¿ ytn) ¿L0d àw 1 /1 ^ / / /This publication contains copyright material. *FM 90-6 FieW Manual HEADQUARTERS No We DEPARTMENT OF THE ARMY Washington, DC, 30 June 1980 MOÜJMTAIIM OPERATIONS PREFACE he purpose of this rUanual is to describe how US Army forces fight in mountain regions. 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.

  • THE NORDEND of MONTE ROSA. T. Graham Brown
    THE • VOL. LIII NOVEMBER I 942 NO. 265 THE NORDEND OF MONTE ROSA BY T. GRAHAM BROWN Substance of a lecture delivered before the Alpine Club, December g, 1941. T is curious to reflect that the ascent of the N ordend might have been one of the most popular in the Alps had the Dufourspitze been but 83 ft. lower. As things are, the mountain is relatively neglected. The usual route to its graceful summit lies off the beaten track, and more .often than not the N ordend is omitted during traverses of the Monte Rosa peaks ; parties from the Marinelli hut seem almost invariably to take the easier but more dangerous route to the Dufour­ spitze in preference to the more difficult ascent of the N ordend by its stupendous Macugnaga face ; the sensational Frontier arete, 1 which plunges to the Jagerjoch in vertical steps, has rarely been visited ; and (to the best of my knowledge) the wide and steep Weisstor (or N.E.) face of the N ordend has so far received attention from but a single climbing party. To these striking neglects may be added a fifth: on only one former occasion, and that was nearly thirty years ago, has the Nordend been the subject of a paper read before the Club.2 The event deserves to be recalled, because it was then that E. A. Broome described his expedition of 191 I, when, in the course of the day, he ascended the Macugnaga face from the Marinelli hut and descended by the ordinary route to the Riffelhaus the memorable achievement of a great climber who was in his sixty-seventh year at the time of the ascent.

  • General Comments Abstract : Try to Group the Sentences Related to the Background and Those Related to the Methods to Ease the Reading
    General comments Abstract : Try to group the sentences related to the background and those related to the methods to ease the reading. Highlight most relevant results, which are not only the evidence of a permafrost-free belt, but also outcome from the regression analysis and validation for example. Hint at the broad significance, not only « new information for users ». We reordered some sentences referring to background and methods and added further content on the outcome of the study as you suggested. Methods : I wonder about the relevance of presenting the « Mapping approach » before the regression analysis as it introduces concepts related to the regression (example of « the double standard error of our model output»). Some details are not necessary at this stage (example : « the buffer area was mapped in yellow ») and confuse the reader. At this stage of the method, it is in my opinion better to introduce the modeling approach rather than the mapping approach which is the final product and a way to express the model. Similarly, the regression approach is presented at the same time as the mapping approach (P4, L1-5) and it would be better to start from description L31 (P3) : explaining main predictors variables, then the regression analysis and finally the mapping approach. This is a suggestion, but in the current state, the method section is still confusing. You are completely right. This problem was easy to solve. We moved the entire paragraph which deals with description of the final map product : “It includes all areas with modeled negative ground temperatures….. possible patchy permafrost” from the beginning of section 2.1 to the very end of section 2.1 where the actual mapping of zone 1 is described in the subsection “step 4: mapping zone 1”.
