Abstract

At the present time, on a section of the railroad extending about 83 kilometers there are 20 locations with a total length of 5,000 meters where avalanching is observed every winter. The general nature of the probability distribution of the avalanche volumes and their distribution by months in the investigated 83 km for 1964-1966 are presented. (Author)
