Cool
They are actually predicting serac collapses not avalanches

I wonder how much real
I wonder how much real earthquakes affect overall glacial topography in zones where there are tons of earthquakes? A really cool side-phenomenon of such seismic activity can be the resulting surface pattern of powder snow after some shaking. I seen some crazy stuff here in La Grave, like golfball like dimples covering the entire surface of the glacier snowpack (and nowhere else) that can be only explained by seismic effects. |
