Abstract
The intense tectonic activities and complex geomorphology have made the Tibetan Plateau the highly potential area of mountain hazards, including glacial lake outburst, torrential floods, debris flows, landslides, and avalanches, especially caused by the coupling of avalanches, glacier movement, snow melting, and extreme precipitation (Fig. 1). Moreover, the disasters usually occur in chains and are amplified by cascaded processes, involving a variety of types of disasters in a long period and over a wide range of space. Therefore, it is significant to carry out quantitative study on the physical features, formation mechanism, dynamic process, transformation of disaster chain, and risk analysis of mega mountain hazards under climate change, and eventually to propose reasonable disaster mitigation measures to reduce risks from global climate change.
