Comparison of geosystems of basins of the rivers Cherek Balkarsky and Cherek Bezengiysky (KBR)
on degree of the actual torrential (mudflow) danger on the basis of geoinformation methodology
Abstract:
Relying on the theoretical results acquired earlier by the author within the developing geoinformation
methodology of numerical integrated assessment of exposure of geosystems to natural hazards and their
comparison according to actual degree of torrential danger, results of comparison of two mountain
geosystems of Kabardin- Balkar Republic consisting of variable number of geotaxons are received for the
first time. This assessment practically confirms the justification and adequacy of main provisions of this
methodology to real situations on degree of natural danger.
Keywords:geosystem, geotaxon, dangerous exogenous process, torrential process, numerical integrated assessment of the actual torrential danger of geosystem.
