A Conceptual Model of Avalanche Hazard
Grant Statham,Pascal Haegeli,Karl W. Birkeland,Ethan Greene,Clair Israelson,Bruce Tremper,Chris Stethem,Bruce McMahon,Brad White,John Kelly +9 more
TL;DR: This work used judgmental decomposition to elicit the avalanche forecasting process from forecasters and then described it within a risk-based framework that is consistent with other natural hazards disciplines.

A conceptual model of avalanche hazard
Grant Statham,Pascal Haegeli,Ethan Greene,Karl W. Birkeland,Clair Israelson,Bruce Tremper,Chris Stethem,Bruce McMahon,Brad White,John Kelly +9 more
TL;DR: In this article, a conceptual model of avalanche hazard identifies the key components of avalanche hazards and structures them into a systematic, consistent workflow for hazard and risk assessments, which is applicable to all types of avalanche forecasting operations, and can be applied at any scale in space or time.
The Avaluator – A Canadian Rule-Based Avalanche Decision Support Tool for Amateur Recreationists
TL;DR: Avaluator as mentioned in this paper is a rule-based decision support tool for backcountry skiers and snowboarders, snowmobile riders and out-of-bounds skiers/sboarders.
The north american public avalanche danger scale
Grant Statham,Pascal Haegeli,Karl W. Birkeland,Ethan Greene,Clair Israelson,Bruce Tremper,Chris Stethem,Bruce McMahon,Brad White,John Kelly +9 more
TL;DR: The North American Public Avalanche Danger Scale (NAPDS) as mentioned in this paper is an ordinal, five-level warning system that is a cornerstone of public avalanche information and has been developed in Europe in 1993 and introduced to North America in 1994.
Exploring Large-Scale Terrain Preferences for Managing Avalanche Risk in a Commercial Backcountry Skiing Operation
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors used daily hazard assessments and run list records from a heli-skiing operation to quantitatively explore patterns in large-scale terrain preferences under different avalanche hazard conditions.
