Cadastre of Avalanche Hazard in the Territory of the ASTRC “Mamison” (North Ossetia-Alania)
The article presents a map and catalog of avalanches on the territory of the creation of the All-Season tourist and recreational complex (ASTRC) “Mamison”. Reconnaissance surveys of the territory were conducted to create a map and catalog of avalanches. During the reconnaissance survey, avalanche collections were identified and their description was carried out, including the zones of origin, transit zones and avalanche deposits. It has been established that the natural conditions in the studied area are favorable for the formation of avalanches and mudslides. An avalanche hazard map of the territory and an avalanche register have been compiled. Height calculations were performed (from 106 cm to 274 cm) snow cover of 1 and 2 % is provided in avalanche zones. The results obtained are of practical importance in the development of mountainous areas and should be taken into account when designing infrastructure facilities at the ASTRC “Mamison”, in particular, it is recommended to carry out a set of measures to ensure avalanche safety.
