Dynamic crack propagation in weak snowpack layers: insights from high-resolution, high-speed photography

<p>Dynamic crack propagation in snow is of key importance for avalanche release. Nevertheless, it has received very little experimental attention. With the introduction of the propagation saw test (PST) in the mid-2000s, a number of studies have used particle tracking analysis of high-speed vi...
