Question

Based on the combined classifications, which of the following are recognized primary categories of snow avalanches?

1. Dry Snow Direct Action Avalanche
2. Wet Snow Delayed Action Avalanche
3. Ice Direct Action Avalanche
4. Dry Snow Delayed Action Avalanche
5. Wet Snow Direct Action Avalanche

• A. നാല് മാത്രം
• B. ഒന്ന്
• C. ഒന്നും രണ്ടും നാലും അഞ്ചും
• D. നാല്

Answer 1

Answer:

C. ഒന്നും രണ്ടും നാലും അഞ്ചും

By combining the two primary types of snow (dry and wet) with the two triggering mechanisms (direct action and delayed action), four distinct primary categories of snow avalanches emerge. These categories—Dry Snow Direct Action, Dry Snow Delayed Action, Wet Snow Direct Action, and Wet Snow Delayed Action—provide a comprehensive framework for avalanche forecasters and researchers. Understanding these specific classifications helps in predicting avalanche behavior, assessing risks, and developing appropriate safety measures, as each category might have unique characteristics regarding speed, path, and destructive power.
