Assessment of debris-flow susceptibility at medium-scale in the Barcelonnette Basin, France
Debris flows are among the most dangerous processes in mountainous areas due to their rapid rate of movement and long runout zone. Sudden and rather unexpected impacts produce not only damages to buildings and infrastructure but also threaten human lives. Medium- to regional-scale susceptibility ana...
