Earth‐surface mass flows such as debris flows, rock avalanches, and dam‐break floods can
grow greatly in size and destructive potential by entraining bed material they encounter …

In response to climatic change, the size and number of moraine-dammed supraglacial and
proglacial lake systems have increased dramatically in recent decades. Given an …

r. avaflow represents an innovative open-source computational tool for routing rapid mass
flows, avalanches, or process chains from a defined release area down an arbitrary …

Erosion can significantly increase the destructive power of a landslide by amplifying its
volume, mobility and impact force. The threat posed by an erosive landslide is linked to its …

Debris flows typically occur when intense rainfall or snowmelt triggers landslides or
extensive erosion on steep, debris-mantled slopes. The flows can then grow dramatically in …

Landslide-generated waves (LGWs) are among natural hazards that have stimulated
attentions and concerns of engineers and researchers during the past decades. At the same …

Analyses of mass and momentum exchange between a debris flow or avalanche and an
underlying sediment layer aid interpretations and predictions of bed‐sediment entrainment …

Debris flows are natural hazards causing fatalities and damages to infrastructures every
year. One of the current challenges is to improve the predictability of such events using …

Controlling sediment to reduce debris-flow hazard is generally approached using retention
basins that can be closed or have an outlet structure, generally an open check dam. They …

Debris flows are among the most catastrophic natural phenomena, attracting the interest of
researchers, engineers and government agencies. The complexity of the physical process …
