Italy Vigilant Before The Risk Of Rupment Of The Planpincieux Glacier

Italy scientists are watching every change of the Planpincieux glacier, in the context of this Mont Blanc mountain river, which is at risk of breaking due to a high temperature of the 18:00 / 1: 57nam in the South Close the Planpincieux glacier in Courmayeur, Val Ferret, Northeast Italy due to the risk of breaking river, on August 6, 2020.

Right below this glacier is a small village Planpincieux. The survival of the village is currently at the alarming level, because the temperate glacier has hit the melting threshold, but no longer retains the monolithic status as the glaciers in the extreme region. Valerio Segor, sub-director Blaming Natural Risk Control in Aosta Valley area said: "We record significant increase in temperatures and this leads to forming flow right below the ice - an important underground creek "

. This also means that the Planpincieux glacier can melt faster, combine with the creeks right below its surface, making the situation difficult to guess and dangerous for the valley on the side Under. According to a glacier expert - Mr. Paolo Perret, in previous years, the status of Planpincieux glaciers was more stable, the tape is thicker and the structure is less broken
However, climate change leads to heat The growth caused "the surface of the glacial river thin, smooth and sloping, making the river position no longer stable as before". Planpincieux glaciers are huge. At a time, this glacier became a steeper than 150 cm in just one day. Mr. Perret said that the risk of breaking the Planpincieux glacier "is about to happen". For comparison, the Whymper glacier at a height of about 4,000 meters above sea level, is also under the same impact of climate change, but only slopes from 2 - 20cm / day. The changes of the Planpincieux glacier, as well as other rivers in Italy - are closely monitored through the radar, while local authorities have also anticipated those The bad scenario can happen to ensure safety for residents. In October 2020, a giant block covers an area of 15,000 square meters from the Whymper River has fallen into the residential area below, a day later When local authorities require people to evacuate this area.
