Book Description
This report comprises the abstracts of all papers presented at a special four-day conference on snow hydrology held in Vermont, U.S.A., 6-9 October 1998. The purpose of this conference was to provide a forum for sharing new knowledge on snow-cover properties and processes, chemical processes in the seasonal snow cover, biotic interactions with the seasonal snow cover, distributed snowmelt models, and scaling problems in snow hydrology To encourage exchange between disciplines, papers were sought that addressed the relation between processes-physical, chemical, and biological-and the integration and distribution of these processes over different spatial and temporal scales.

Book Description
The natural disasters are the killer agents which can/can't be predicted even though we have modern technology. Every year, in one place or another, disasters striking which is devastating the area and surroundings, leading to ecological disruption besides huge loss of life and property. India is vulnerable to cyclones, landslides/avalanches, earthquakes, floods, droughts, forest fires, epidemics, etc. The 5700-km long coast of India, with its dense population is vulnerable to cyclones/low depressions, tsunamis, etc. The 2400-km long rugged Himalayan terrain is vulnerable to landslides, avalanches and earthquakes. India is not only vulnerable to natural disasters, it is also experiencing industrial accidents. The Bhopal Gas tragedy is one of the major man-made disasters in the world. The state of Andhra Pradesh has 970-km long coastline with two major rivers, etc. The conference is conducted in Visakhapatnam, is famous for industries and tourism. Recently, several industrial accidents took place, besides major natural disasters like Hud-Hud, etc. Disaster management shall be implemented from the grass root level in vulnerable areas to improve the capacity building, so as to minimize the losses. The capacity building coupled with technology results in reduction of loss of life and property.
