The book covers the Dzungaria, Tien Shan, and Pamir mountain systems that are characterized by arid climates and scarce forestation, and is an ideal reference for scientists searching for data that accurately summarizes bedrock landslides through the analyses of a multitude of case studies that have applications in comparable, global scenarios. Through its relatively low precipitation and good preservation of minor geomorphic features, particularly those formed by past landslides, this region provides opportunities for detailed study of the internal structure of landslide bodies. 606 $aLandslides$zAsia, Central 606 $aRockslides$zAsia, Central 607 $aCentral Asia$2fast 615 0$aLandslides 615 0$aRockslides 676 $a551.353 700 $aStrom$b Alexander$0908068 702 $aAbdrakhmatov$b Kanatbek 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910583048003321 996 $aRockslides and rock avalanches of Central Asia$92031018 997 $aUNINA
