Description*:: Illgraben
Abstract:: The Illgraben is a 10 km² steep side valley located in Switzerland. This active debris flow catchment supplies 5-15% of the total sediment load of the Rhône River upstream of Lake Geneva. The 30-80° steep catchment slopes host frequent rock falls and slides. From 2012 to 2014, a network of up to ten Nanometrics Trillium Compact 120s broadband seismometers, sampled by Digos DataCube³ext loggers at 200 Hz (and later by centaur), was deployed in and around the catchment to monitor distributed geomorphic activity.
