Estimation of glacier lake outburst flood and its impact on a hydro project in Nepal / G. Meon, W. Schwarz.
Title: | Estimation of glacier lake outburst flood and its impact on a hydro project in Nepal / G. Meon, W. Schwarz. |
Author(s): | Meon, G. Schwarz, W. |
Date: | 1993. |
Publisher: | Wallingford, Oxfordshire: IAHS Press |
In: | Snow and glacier hydrology. Proceedings of an International Symposium held at Kathmandu, Nepal, 16-21 November 1992. (1993.), |
Abstract: | Consideration of potential glacier lake outburst floods (GLOF) is important when designing river engineering structures located downstream of hazardous glacier lakes. Discusses example of Arun river; results indicate that GLOF analysis should be included in addition to classical flood flow analysis. |
Notes: | In: Snow and glacier hydrology. Proceedings of an International Symposium held at Kathmandu, Nepal, 16-21 November 1992 / Gordon J. Young, ed. |
