Record #98208:

Evaluation of avalanche-mass determination approaches: an example from the Himalaya, Pakistan / F.A. de Scally, James S. Gardner.

Title: Evaluation of avalanche-mass determination approaches: an example from the Himalaya, Pakistan / F.A. de Scally, James S. Gardner.
Author(s): Scally, F. A. de.
Gardner, James S.
Date: 1989.
In: Journal of Glaciology. (1989.), Vol. 35(120) (1989)
Abstract: Purpose of study was to estimate annual avalanche masses in this region and to test applicability of existing equation for predicting these masses on nine avalanche paths. Predicted masses were compared to measured avalanche-deposit masses produced during two winters (1985-86, 1986-87)
Notes:

Journal of Glaciology. Vol. 35(120) :248-252 (1989).

Keywords: 551.578.48 -- Avalanches.
551.578.483 -- Avalanches, forecasting.
E10 -- Glaciology: snow and avalanches.
(549) -- Pakistan.
(235.24) -- Himalayas. Karakorum. Tibetan plateau.
