Published in 2024 at "Earth Surface Processes and Landforms"

DOI: 10.1002/esp.5994

Abstract: Sediment transported from debris‐flow initiation zones is typically stored in a topographic feature called a debris‐flow fan, the formation process of which governs secondary sediment transport further downstream. Although sediment transport from debris‐flow fans can… read more here.

Published in 2025 at "Earth Surface Processes and Landforms"

DOI: 10.1002/esp.6069

Abstract: Debris flow is characterized by a heterogeneous mixture of water and sediment with varying rheology. The granular effects on rheology are usually attributed to the bulk concentration of solids without considering the variability of granular… read more here.
