level, surveys commissioned by the European Com-
munity/the European Union provide an indication of trends in concern about cli-
mate change. Since 1992, such surveys have been undertaken among representative
samples of citizens in its Member States, and specifically on topics related to the
environment (Special Eurobarometers (EB) in 1992, 1995, 2002; and a Flash EB
in 2002). These have included

and the y-axis the dates between March and July. For every year,
the melt season starting date is plotted (blue dots), and a blue line connects the dates for all the
years. A regression line fitting those values (orange line) is shown, and the difference in days
between the beginning and the end of the period, as calculated from the regression line, is
indicated at the top of the plot.

Such landslides fall from a comparatively high
elevation, cause extensive disruption and upheaval of loose materials and soils in their
way, and can travel considerable distances uphill against opposing slopes.
Secondly, there are medium-sized or large, rapid debris flows that are released from com-
paratively high elevations and are confined to gullies as they travel down the mountain-
side, similar
