Ben Jacobs co-authored a paper by former Landslide Group member Dr. Daniel Dräbing (University of Bayreuth) on alpine rockwall erosion patterns. The publication shows that paraglacial, frost cracking and permafrost processes jointly drive postglacial… [weiterlesen]

We contributed to this extensive publication with electrical resistivity surveys on the two norwegian instable rock slopes Mannen and Gámanjunni-3 in colaboration with many of our european colleagues. We also performed the resistivity calibration in… [weiterlesen]

"The Matterhorn looks like an immovable, massive mountain that has towered over Zermatt in the landscape for thousands of years. A study now shows that this impression is deceptive. An international team of researchers has proven that the Matterhorn… [weiterlesen]

We are happy to announce our recent publication "Performance Testing of Optical Flow Time Series Analyses Based on a Fast, High-Alpine Landslide". For the first time the optical flow algorithm Dense Inverse Search was used to study landslides. In… [weiterlesen]

Maike Offer joined the TUM Landslide Research Group as a PhD student working on alpine permafrost bedrock. She completed her BSc in Environmental Enginnering and her MSc in Civil Enginnering both at the TUM.  Her research interest as a PhD student… [weiterlesen]

During 2021, despite the extended Covid limitations, the Chair of Landslide Research continued the permafrost monitoring on the Zugspitze on the ridge and in the Kammstollen, 15 years after the first measurements. We are thankful to all the students… [weiterlesen]

“Erosion can significantly increase the destructive power of a landslide by rapidly amplifying its volume, mobility and impact force. The threat posed by erosive-landslides is directly linked to their mobility. However, when, how and how much energy… [weiterlesen]
