Predicting Peak Discharge of Outburst Floods from Moraine-Dammed Glacial Lakes
Moraine-dammed lakes, formed by glacial deposits such as boulders, gravel, sand, and clay, are highly prone to catastrophic failure, causing glacial lake outburst floods (GLOFs) that threaten downstream communities and infrastructure. These natural dams, often located in high-altitude, sparsely vegetated regions, are destabilized by factors such as avalanches, landslides, earthquakes, and permafrost degradation. The resulting floods scour valleys…
Peak Flood Discharge from a Landslide Dam Outburst
A rapid method for estimating the peak discharge from a breached landslide dam is developed from an analysis of 42 outburst floods. Systematic classification of the river blockages based on the landslide type, its material composition, and its travel distance is used to assess the erodibility of a dam. The blockage erodibility, along with the impoundment’s characteristics, controls the size (height and width) of a breach and the speed at which it…
