dbalps: natural instability processes at high-elevation sites

Abstract

GeoClimAlp (Geomorphological impacts of Climate change in the Alps) is a research group of the CNR-IRPI established with the intent to deepen and improve the knowledge on the role of climate change in the morphogenesis of the alpine environment in general and of high-altitude environments in particular. The geological-morphological and climatic-hydrologic research fields are the main ones to be integrated in the scientific activities of the research group. The activities currently carried out by GeoClimAlp are mainly oriented on the study of natural instability processes occurring in mountain environments in general and at high-elevation sites in particular, with emphasis on changes taking place due to the climate change, and on related geohazards. For this type of activity, we have developed a web-based relational database that is able to store and manage data and information about: 1.the natural instability processes that occur at high-elevation sites 2.the main climatic parameters that are necessary for the study of these processes Data and information can be inserted into the database trough a simple web interface, trough a smartphone or a tablet. In this way, many informations can be acquired by the hikers, by the citizens and by others (rock climbers and mountain guides, alpine rescue team, park guards) directly on site, near where processes occur.
