A1 Khazaradze, G. A1 Grup d’Allaus de la UB, AB Snow avalanches associated risk in mountain areas can be very high. The knowledge of these phenomenais very impor tant in order to mitigate that risk. The avalanche research group at the University of Barcelonahas been working with the seismic signals of snow avalanches since 1994 at different sites all aroundEurope. The availability of more than 50 seismic records of snow avalanches made possible the identificationof the specific characteristics of the seismic signals generated by avalanches. Classical seismologicaltechniques frequently used to study earthquakes have been imported to perform the seismic signalcharacterization. However, the recent studies of the group have been focused in determining the physicalparameters that can help in the description of the phenomena. In this case, seismological techniques havebeen used, in addition of the characterization of the seismic signals to obtain information of the avalancheitself.
