Scientists in Norway are developing a predictive tool for slush flows, which are dangerous and under-researched phenomena that occur when snow becomes saturated with water. The EU-funded IMPETUS project aims to collect data and map risks to prevent life-threatening events. Slush flows can cause significant damage to infrastructure and communities, especially in Finnmark County. Researchers at the University of Tromsø are working on a digital tool to forecast slush flows by analyzing weather conditions, snowpack, and terrain. Teljes cikk (Euronews.com)
