International scientific and practical Conference
"Snow avalanches and related subjects"
October 27-28, 2022
The conference will cover wide range of problems related to snow avalanches and snow science, avalanche mitigation measures and will be focused on recent results merging theory and practice. A computer presentation (power point) will be used to demonstrate the reports (most probably using Zoom). Each oral report, together with the discussion, will take about 30 minutes.
Reports with objectives of snow avalanches-related problems and suggested directions for their solving are welcomed.
Official languages of the conference: Russian, English.
