Formation conditions of rainfall-generated mudflows in mountain regions

详细

A new method for the assessment of formation conditions of rainfall-generated mudflows is proposed. The method introduces two new criteria: minimum (critical) values of rainfall and meteorological force of rain obtained from the data of observations of rainfalls from 1953 to 2014. This is important for the early warning about the risk of mudflows and for timely taken protection measures in restdential areas and other economic obj ects situated in the zone of the possible negative impact of mudflows.
