Zusammenfassung |
A historical
analysis of natural hazards for the Hindelang area in the Bavarian Alps is
done by researching and assessing data from different archives. The focus
is on an evaluation of historical hazards on a local scale by working with
written documents only. Data is compiled from the archives of governmental
departments, local authorities, private collections and state archives.
The bandwidth of the assessed hazards includes floods, mass movements and
snow avalanches. So far we have collected more than 400 references for
events in the Hindelang area, some of which at times or in places where
natural hazards used to be thought of as unlikely or unknown. Our aim was
to collect all written data for this area and to deduce as much
information on the hazardous effects on the environment as possible,
thereby enhancing our knowledge about past climatic and geomorphic
dynamics in the Alps. |
