Simulation of flood progress on the River Gidra [PDF]

open access: yesPollack Periodica, 2016
In Slovakia, the year 2011 can be characterized as dry with an irregular distribution of rainfall during the whole year. However, there were also some important hydrological events in form of flash floods. One of them a flash flood on the River Gidra, which passes the village of Pila situated below the Small Carpathians.

Progressive incision of the Channeled Scablands by outburst floods

open access: yesNature, 2016
The surfaces of Earth and Mars contain large bedrock canyons that were carved by catastrophic outburst floods. Reconstructing the magnitude of these canyon-forming floods is essential for understanding the ways in which floods modify planetary surfaces, the hydrology of early Mars and abrupt changes in climate.
