Geomorphic effects of recurrent outburst superfloods in the Yigong River on the southeastern margin of Tibet
Abstract Landslide dam outburst floods have a significant impact on landform evolution in high mountainous areas. Historic landslide dams on the Yigong River, southeastern Tibet, generated two outburst superfloods > 105 m3/s in 1902 and 2000 AD. One of the slackwater deposits, which was newly fou...
