Abstract:Chapter 1. Introduction (Jan Kalvoda) -- Chapter 2. Treatise on remarkable morphogenesis of the Nepal Himalaya (Jan Kalvoda) -- Chapter 3. Development of the map representation of the Nepal Himalaya up to the end of 19th century (Eva Novotná) -- Chapter 4. Diverse perception of natural hazards and disasters by the inhabitants of the Himalaya (Jan Kalvoda) -- Chapter 5. Natural hazards, risks and disasters in Nepal: insights from bibliometrical analysis of research papers and disaster databases (Adam Emmer) -- Chapter 6. Mass density variations of landforms, active orogeny and erosion in the Nepal Himalaya derived from the Earth gravity model EIGEN 6C4 (Jan Kostelecký) -- Chapter 7. Potentially dangerous moraine-dammed glacial lakes for outburst in the Nepal Himalaya (Sazeda Begam) -- Chapter 8. Geomorphic implications of the late Pleistocene sand deposits in the lower Khumbu region, Nepal (Giri Bibek) -- Chapter 9. Geomorphic hazards in the Makalu Barun area of the Nepal Himalaya (Jan Kalvoda) -- Chapter 10. An actual biogeographical hazard of the expansion of small mammals and their parasites linked with climate changes in the East Nepal Himalaya (Milan Daniel) -- Chapter 11. The role of natural hazards and socio-cultural factors in shaping the history of settlement locations in the Limi Valley, north-west Nepal Himalaya (Jan Kropáček) -- Chapter 12. Current state of research on and response to geomorphological hazards in Nepal (Finu Shrestha) -- Chapter 13. Conclusions: the dynamics and complexity of geomorphological hazards in the Nepal Himalaya (Jan Kalvoda).
 The book offers a wide range of research topics that are addressed with the aim of contributing to the knowledge of geomorphological hazards in the Himalaya. It is emphasized the integration of climate-driven morphogenetic and tectonic processes in the Nepal Himalaya as a substantial phenomenon of active collisional orogeny. The extreme dynamics of landform evolution in the Himalayan terranes triggers severe natural hazards and risks. Interdisciplinary research of geomorphological processes and events related to natural hazards in the Nepal Himalaya follows general efforts to reduce geoenvironmental disasters. Visual documentation is of particular importance in the conception of the book, which is intended for specialized researchers as well as students. .
