Seafloor slopes control submarine canyon distribution: A global analysis
Submarine canyon distribution is driven by slope inclination, linking tectonic and thermal forces to canyon formation.

Last Wednesday the Birchgletscher in the Swiss Alps collapsed, devastating large parts of the village #Blatten and blocking the Lonza river which created a small lake.
Thanks to aerial images shared by #swisstopo, I was able to create a 3D model of the area.
