※上記表示の販売価格は割引適用後の価格です 出版済み 3週間でお届けいたします。 Author: Jan Kalvoda, Eva Novotna Publisher: Springer ISBN: 9783031584206 Cover: HARDCOVER Date: 2024年07月 DESCRIPTION The book offers a wide range of research topics that are addressed with the aim of contributing to the knowledge of geomorphological hazards in the Himalaya. It is emphasized the integration of climate-driven morphogenetic and tectonic processes in the Nepal Himalaya as a substantial phenomenon of active collisional orogeny. The extreme dynamics of landform evolution in the Himalayan terranes triggers severe natural hazards and risks. Interdisciplinary research of geomorphological processes and events related to natural hazards in the Nepal Himalaya follows general efforts to reduce geoenvironmental disasters. Visual documentation is of particular importance in the conception of the book, which is intended for specialized researchers as well as students. TABLE OF CONTENTS Chapter 1.
