Le torrent de Chirlești (Carpates de la Courbure, Roumanie) : un demi-siècle d'activité

The mud torrent of Chirleşti, located in the Carpathian Curvature, is an unusual body that combines torrent morphology with mudflow dynamics. Came into existence in early 1950s, as a result of a strong deforestation, this mud torrent has instantly threatened the settlements situated at his outlet. I...
