Abstract:

Natural Debris Flows and Field Experiments in Kazakhstan compiles research on debris flows, originally published in Russian (1976–1992). It covers field experiments at the Chemolgan test site, seismic signal analysis, and large-scale natural debris flows triggered by glacial lake outburst floods. The volume translates Soviet-era findings, offering insights into debris flow activity in the Zailiysky Alatau Mountains.
