The 15th Swiss Geoscience Meeting, organized by the WSL-Institute for Snow and Avalanche Research SLF and the Platform Geosciences of the Swiss Academy of Sciences SCNAT, was held on 17th and 18th of November 2017 in Davos (Switzerland).
16 different sessions were planned during this meeting and the Risk Group members contributed to several presentations mainly in the “Progress in assessment of hazards and risks in mountain regions” session. Presentations are below:
