Abstract
Avalanches are a widespread hazard that cause serious damage in the southeastern Tibetan Plateau. Abundant solid precipitation and high relief are favourable for avalanche occurrence. The monsoon climate brings a lot of precipitation which, however, is not well distributed. Avalanches are most common around the margins of the plateau. Wet snow avalanches occur most frequently. Based on data on precipitation and topographical relief, a map is drawn showing the areal distribution of avalanche hazards.
