Megaflooding on Earth and Mars

Edited by Devon M. Burr, Paul A. Carling, Victor R. Baker ...

Megaflooding is the sudden discharge of exceptional volumes of water. Megafloods have significantly altered the terrain of Earth and Mars, and may have acted as triggers for climate change on these planets. Recently, research into megaflooding has made important advances: on Earth, real-time measurements of contemporary floods in Iceland complement research into older and larger terrestrial floods ...

Shallow Geophysical Mass Flows down Arbitrary Topography

Model Equations in Topography-fitted Coordinates, Numerical Simulation and Back-calculations of Disastrous Events

by Yih-Chin Tai, Chih-Yu Kuo, Ioana Luca ...

Series series Earth and Environmental Science (R0)
Geophysical mass flows, such as landslides, avalanches or debris flows, are frequent mass movement processes in mountain areas and often cause disastrous damage. This book lays a foundation for formulating the depth-averaged equations describing the shallow geophysical mass flows over non-trivial topography. It consists of the detailed derivation of the model equations. The stimulating numerical ... Read more

Series series Earth and Environmental Science (R0)
In its classical sense "epigenesis" refers to all geological processes originating at or near the surface of the earth. It thus embraces all those phenomena which we associate with the land scape; Perel'man has already written extensively on this subject. The landscape, in the physical sense, is controlled by the interac tion of exogenic and endogenic agencies-on the one hand, the atmo sphere, the ... Read more
