Geology and mass movements of the Licetto River catchment (Calabrian Coastal Range, Southern Italy)
The paper presents a detailed mass movement inventory map of the Licetto River basin, an intermountain catchment of 50 km2 formed during the Quaternary in response to extensional tectonics dissecting fold-and-thrust belts of the Calabrian Coastal Range ...

Evaluating methods for debris-flow prediction based on rainfall in an Alpine catchment [PDF]
The prediction of debris flows is relevant because this type of natural hazard can pose a threat to humans and infrastructure. Debris-flow (and landslide) early warning systems often rely on rainfall intensity–duration (ID) thresholds. Multiple competing

Shear-thinning, Coulomb friction and grain collisions in debris-flow waterfalls: Applications of a 3D phase mixture model with a single calibration parameter and a complex 4-way coupled resolved CFD-DEM approach [PDF]
Shear-thinning is a common flow-feature of fine sediment suspensions. Mixed with gravel, Coulomb friction drives the energy dissipation between small grains while collisions become more and more important with larger grains.

Simulated or measured soil moisture: which one is adding more value to regional landslide early warning? [PDF]
The inclusion of soil wetness information in empirical landslide prediction models was shown to improve the forecast goodness of regional landslide early warning systems (LEWSs). However, it is still unclear which source of information – numerical models

Abstract In this chapter, we consider key advances in the understanding of mass movements between c. 1965 and c. 2000. This period saw a burgeoning need for a greater level of understanding of mass-movement processes in response to a series of high-impact mass-movement events, and ...

Technical note: Evaluation of a low-cost evaporation protection method for portable water samplers [PDF]
Automated field sampling of streamwater or precipitation for subsequent analysis of stable water isotopes (2H and 18O) is often conducted with off-the-shelf automated samplers.
