A new 3D simulation tool developed by ETH and SLF researchers now allows for significantly more accurate predictions of ...

i spoke with a doctor who richard says debris flows. he has develop in a model that can forecast the likelihood of a debris flow for a specific area. >> there is a number of factors that go into ...

"Our study proposes a new approach using a model to predict debris flow behavior before a fire occurs." A common misconception is that after a wildfire is contained, the danger is over.

Debris flows carry mud and water, and their power, speed and thick consistency allow them to also transport heavy objects like a boulder the size of a Volkswagen Beetle. “It becomes a flood on ...
