Abstract:

Preventive emptying of surface reservoirs on moraine-glacial complexes to reduce debris flow risk should account for natural processes of lake evolution and outburst. The article examines the case of Lake 13-bis on the Sovetov Glacier and provides recommendations for optimizing future work.
