Shape still matters - experimental quantification of deadwood effects on rockfall dynamics

We conducted an experimental rockfall campaign on a forested slope with deadwood and on with the windthrown area cleared in Schiers (CH). Two different rock categories were used: natural rocks with masses between 30 and 85 kg and artificial EOTA-concrete rocks with rock masses ranging from 45 kg up to 3200 kg. In contrast to the intended research article publication, also all information about the experimental runs of the smaller rock masses are available. Besides the geometries of those rocks, the data set contains three LiDAR point clouds, orthophotos, the release point (and release line used in RAMMS), the retrieved single tree positions with DBH, and energy absorption threshold, video footage, and all reconstructed trajectories.
