Journal ArticleDOI

Evolution of a natural debris flow: In situ measurements of flow dynamics, video imagery, and terrestrial laser scanning

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors used a combination of in situ measurements of debris-flow dynamics, video imagery, and pre-and post-flow 2-cm-resolution digital terrain models to study a natural debris flow event.
Journal ArticleDOI

Sediment entrainment by debris flows: In situ measurements from the headwaters of a steep catchment

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors measured flow and bed properties during six erosive debris-flow events and found that sediment entrainment rates were significantly faster for sediment that was saturated prior to flow arrival compared with sediment that were dry.
Journal ArticleDOI

Surficial patterns of debris flow deposition on alluvial fans in Death Valley, CA using airborne laser swath mapping data

TL;DR: In this article, high-resolution airborne laser swath mapping (ALSM) data is used to calculate profile curvature and surface gradient on 19 debris flow fans on the eastern side of Death Valley.
Journal ArticleDOI

Characterizing the primary material sources and dominant erosional processes for post-fire debris-flow initiation in a headwater basin using multi-temporal terrestrial laser scanning data

TL;DR: In this article, the authors combine the morphometric analysis of a steep, small headwater drainage basin with measurements of topographic change using high-resolution multi-temporal terrestrial laser scanning data made before and after a post-fire debris flow.
