Impact of rainfall spatial aggregation on the identification of debris flow occurrence thresholds [PDF]
Hydrology and Earth System Sciences, 2017 The systematic underestimation observed in debris flow early warning thresholds has been associated with the use of sparse rain gauge networks to represent highly non-stationary rainfall fields.

Objective definition of discharge thresholds for post-fire debris flows [PDF]
E3S Web of Conferences, 2023 Runoff-generated debris flows are a common post-fire hazard in the western United States and a growing number of regions around the world. As wildfire continues to emerge across a broader range of geographic regions and plant communities, there is an ...

Forecasting landslides using SIGMA model: a case study from Idukki, India
Geomatics, Natural Hazards & Risk, 2021 This study proposes a regional landslide early warning system for Idukki (India), using a decisional algorithm. The algorithm forecasts the possibility of occurrence of landslide by comparing the rainfall thresholds with the cumulated rainfall values ...

A stochastic design rainfall generator based on copulas and mass curves [PDF]
, 2010 The use of design storms can be very useful in many hydrological and hydraulic practices. In this study, the concept of a copula-based secondary return period in combination with the concept of mass curves is used to generate point-scale design storms ...
