Empirical models to estimate the probability of occurrence and volume of postwildfire debris
flows can be quickly implemented in a geographic information system (GIS) to generate …

Erosion, flash floods and debris flows are hydro-geomorphic processes that intensify due to
catchment disturbance by wildland fire. Predictive models of these processes are used by …

Moody et al., 2013). Wildfire can also impart physical changes to soil structure (Badía and
Martí, 2003; Nyman et al., 2013), increasing its susceptibility to downslope movement. Fine …

Floods and forest fires are two of the most devastating natural hazards with severe
socioeconomic, environmental as well as aesthetic impacts on the affected areas …

Water users of the Platte River Basin have long struggled to share this scarce commodity in
the arid high plains, ultimately organizing collectively owned and managed water systems …

The Strug landslide was triggered in December 2001 as a rockslide, followed by a rock fall.
In 2002, about 20 debris flows were registered in the Kosec village; they were initiated in the …

Overland flow detectors (OFDs) were deployed in 2012 on a hillslope burned by the 2010
Fourmile Canyon fire near Boulder, Colorado, USA. These detectors were simple, electrical …

This study demonstrates the novel application of genetic programming to evolve nonlinear
post-fire debris-flow volume equations from variables associated with a data-driven …

Infrastructure systems are facing non-stationary challenges that stem from climate change
and the increasingly complex interactions between the social, ecological, and technological …

Debris flows are fast-moving, high-density slurries of water, sediment, and debris that can
have enormous destructive power. Although debris flows, triggered by intense rainfall or …
