Extreme avalanche cycles: Return levels and probability distributions depending on snow and meteorological conditions

Remarkable episodes of avalanche events, so-called snow avalanche cycles, are recurring threats to people and infrastructures in mountainous areas. This study focuses on the hazard assessment of snow avalanche cycles defined by daily occurrence numbers exceeding the 2-year return level. To this aim,...
