description |
International audience The EuroDendro project aims to detect the signal of recent snow-avalanche activity within the analyses of tree rings. In mountain areas, even middle mountains, snow avalanches are a common process & pose serious hazards & risks in recently occupied sectors, either for residence or recreation purposes. Where (i) geomorphological evidence of snow-avalanche occurrence are scarce, (ii) historical records are poor & (iii) trees are colonizing part of the slopes, tree-ring analyses appear as a good alternative to reveal the recent snow-avalanche history. The dendromorphological approach consists in a survey of the investigated areas to inventory damages that affect the morphology of the tree: tilting of the trunk, presence of scars on the trunk, topped trees. Such a survey enables mapping the most frequent snow-avalanche paths, helping to: locate the maximum potential damages estimate the runout distances appreciate the lateral dispersion of the events The EuroDendro project is very interested in: (i) broad-leaved trees, which attracted seldom attention in dendrogeomorphology related to snow-avalanche activity: birch (Betula pubescens) in N Iceland birch (Betula pubescens) & alder (Alnus) in W Norway beech (Fagus sylvatica) in NE Cantal-France (ii) coniferous trees in little explored areas where broad-leaved trees are unavailable: spruce (Picea abies) in Central Romania Core extractions in c & d directions, i.e. parallel to the main flux lines, on both the uphill & the downhill sides of the tree Core analyses on a Lintab measurement table, enabling tree-rings counting, location & dating of growth disturbances (narrow & large rings) & reaction wood formation. The EuroDendro project investigates four main areas, some of them in connection with other scientific frameworks. The investigated areas are located in: xx (A) Northern Iceland, in the Dalsmynni valley, the Ljósavatn-skarð pass & the southern Fnjóskadalur valley, (B) Western Norway, at the bottom of ... |
