This review describes the mechanisms of lahars and debris flows, and their impacts on
buildings, infrastructure and other valuables. Lahars are a type of debris flow restricted to …

Flash floods and debris flows develop at space and time scales that conventional
observation systems for rainfall, streamflow and sediment discharge are not able to monitor …

Several different factors external to the natural hazard of flash flooding can contribute to the
type and magnitude of their resulting damages. Human exposure, vulnerability, fatality and …

The last decade has witnessed the development of methodologies for the post‐flood
documentation of both hydrogeomorphological and social response to extreme precipitation …

Flash floods are among the most disastrous natural hazards worldwide because of their
rapid onset that limits effective emergency response and management. Understanding the …

Freshwater ecosystems play an important role in transporting and accumulating
microplastics. Spatial and temporal variability in microplastic pollution can create critical …

Flash floods, a subset of floods, are a particularly damaging natural hazard worldwide
because of their multidisciplinary nature, difficulty in forecasting, and fast onset that limits …

This paper describes an integrated, high-resolution dataset of hydro-meteorological
variables (rainfall and discharge) concerning a number of high-intensity flash floods that …

Social vulnerability explains the sociological and human-dependent circumstances that
translate a natural event into a deadly disaster. But, what are the space–time characteristics …
