publications

This page lists technical publications by project members. We'd like to remind you that many interesting papers have been published on these topics by other workers and groups.

In the lists that follow, we've separated abstracts and miscellaneous reports from peer-reviewed articles, and we've kept publications from the Nanga Parbat and Tibet projects separate (note that several of the papers are relevant to both projects and regions).
