Levees creation in debris flows during rapid dewatering: observations from Jotunheimen, Southern Norway
Pages 109-112
Abstract
Field observations from southern Norway, theoretical analysis, and a simple experimental test indicate that levees in coarse-grained, water-rich debris flow may partly form as a result of strong dewatering during flow. Dewatering may also influence the runout distance of the debris flow.
