Debris flows in the eastern Italian Alps: seasonality and atmospheric circulation patterns
The work examines the seasonality and large-scale atmospheric circulation patterns associated with debris-flow occurrence in the Trentino–Alto Adige region (eastern Italian Alps). Analysis is based on classification algorithms applied to a uniquely dense archive of debris flows and hourly rain gauge precipitation series covering the period 2000–2009. Results highlight the seasonal and synoptic ...
متن کاملOlympus Mons Fan Shaped Deposit Morphology: Evidence for Debris Glaciers
Introduction: Olympus Mons is the largest volcano on Mars, rising over 25 km above the surrounding plains and with a basal diameter greater than 600 km. It is surrounded by a basal escarpment up to 6 km tall. Extending up to 1000 km beyond this scarp are lobes of ridged materials known as the aureole [1, 2]. Superimposed upon the west and northwest aureole deposits at the base of the escarpment...
متن کاملMonitoring the propagation of a debris flow along a torrent
The results are presented of a field experiment on debris flow monitoring that were obtained in the summer of 1996 in a small mountain torrent in the Italian Alps. A network of seismic detectors was placed about one kilometre upstream of some previously existing gauging stations equipped with ultrasonic devices. In June and July two debris flows occurred, which were recorded both by the seismic...
متن کاملConcrete Debris Recycling, Environmental and Economic Effects
In this paper, first we identify the destruction ways of concrete constructions and the benefits of waste management and the plans to recycle the concrete debris were investigated and it was concluded that the existence of plans to recycle the concrete debris could lead to big economic save ups and by recycling these debris we can create affordable ways for concrete making centers. By the way, ...
متن کاملAssessing Debris Flow Hazard by Credal Nets
Debris flows are among the most dangerous and destructive natural hazards that affect human life, buildings, and infrastructures. Starting from the ’70s, significant scientific and engineering advances in the understanding of the processes have been achieved [4, 7]. Yet, human expertise is still fundamental for hazard identification, as many aspects of the whole process are poorly understood; a...
