An avalanche may be defined as the destabilization and flow of part of the snow cover. The book essentially deals with the former, focusing on avalanche triggering mechanisms. Avalanche triggering mechanisms have been debated for a long time. The book provides the reader with a re-foundation on clear scientific bases.
