The intensification of extreme events due climate change and sea-level rise are major
challenges to be urgently addressed by Europe's coastal cities. Coastal hazards have the …

Hydro-meteorological hazards (HMHs) have had a strong impact on human societies and
ecosystems. Their impact is projected to be exacerbated by future climate scenarios. HMHs …

There is growing concern that flooding is becoming more frequent and severe in Europe. A
better understanding of flood regime changes and their drivers is therefore needed. The …

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

River widening, defined as a lateral expansion of the channel, is a critical process that
maintains fluvial ecosystems and is part of the regular functioning of rivers. However, in …

In mountain environments, the coupling of hillslopes processes with the channel network
during extreme events is of great importance for rivers dynamics, as debris flows and …

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

Our capability to accurately predict at the local scale the morphological changes in a
mountain river affected by a severe flood is currently limited. Given the importance of …

Large floods may produce remarkable channel changes, which determine damages and
casualties in inhabited areas. However, our knowledge of such processes remains poor, as …

This work presents a post-event survey study, addressing the geomorphic response and
large wood budget of two torrents, Grimmbach and Orlacher Bach, in southwestern Germany …
