Research into post-wildfire effects began in the United States more than 70years ago and
only later extended to other parts of the world. Post-wildfire responses are typically transient …

Wildfires increased dramatically in frequency and extent in the European Mediterranean
region from the 1960s, aided by a general warming and drying trend, but driven primarily by …

Wildfire can lead to considerable hydrological and geomorphological change, both directly
by weathering bedrock surfaces and changing soil structure and properties, and indirectly …

Abstract Knowledge of the transfer of sediment through river systems is essential for
understanding the physical, chemical and biological processes on the Earth's surface. A …

Early warning of post-fire debris-flow occurrence during intense rainfall has traditionally
relied upon a library of regionally specific empirical rainfall intensity–duration thresholds …

Many of the world's extensive warm dryland regions support numerous, albeit often
infrequently flowing, rivers. Dryland rivers are increasingly a focus of scientific and applied …

A wildfire in May 1996 burned 4690 hectares in two watersheds forested by ponderosa pine
and Douglas fir in a steep, mountainous landscape with a summer, convective thunderstorm …

The most common natural landslide triggers are described in this chapter, including intense
rainfall, rapid snowmelt, water-level change, volcanic eruption, and earthquake shaking, and …

Debris flows often occur in burned steeplands of southern California, sometimes causing
property damage and loss of life. In an effort to better understand the hydrologic controls on …
