Abstract
The proceedings contains 11 the 17 papers presented at the technical session on geometric hazards in managed forests at the XIX World Congress, International Union of Forestry Research Organizations, August 5-11, 1990, Montreal, Canada, plus one paper not presented orally. Two papers report research on torrents, two are about snow, three concern landslides, and five discuss watershed management problems.Titles contained within Proceedings of the IUFRO technical session on geomorphic hazards in managed forests: 5-11 August 1990: Montreal, Canada
