As natural disasters are induced by geodynamic activities or abnormal changes in the
environment, geological hazards tend to wreak havoc on the environment and human …

Debris flows represent one of the most dangerous types of mass movements, because of
their high velocities, large impact forces and long runout distances. This review describes …

Debris floods have been defined descriptively as mineral and organic sediment‐rich floods,
occurring in a steep channel and potentially destabilizing the streambed and banks. While …

Sediment connectivity within a catchment depends largely on the morphological complexity
of the catchment and is strictly related to the anthropogenic modification of the landscape. In …

Torrent control works, such as grade control dams and sediment retention dams, are
structural measures for controlling debris flows and debris floods. In spite of the widespread …

Digital elevation models (DEMs) built from repeated topographic surveys permit producing
DEM of Difference (DoD) that enables assessment of elevation variations and estimation of …

Debris flows represent a major hazard in mountainous areas, due to their rapid motion along
steep channels and to the transport of large sediment volumes, including large boulders. In …

This work aims to evaluate the potential benefits and limitations of radar rainfall estimates for
the identification of debris flow occurrence rainfall thresholds. Observations from a C-band …

In seismology, the signal is usually analysed for earthquake data, but earthquakes represent
less than 1% of continuous recording. The remaining data are considered as seismic noise …

The internal deformation within debris flows holds essential information on dynamics and
flow resistance of such mass‐wasting processes. Systematic measurements of velocity …
