1) Debris flows occur when high intensity rainfall generates abundant runoff that entrains large quantities of debris material in steep mountain channels, forming solid-liquid flows. 2) Debris flows can damage infrastructure and be deadly, as evidenced by photographs of destroyed villages, flooded roads, and debris deposits from past events. 3) Mitigation is needed because debris flows result from three processes - runoff generation, entrainment of debris, and downstream routing of the solid-liquid mass.

- 28. Carlo Gregoretti23/5/2017 Mekelle University - Debris Flows In brief, a debris flow results from three different physical processes 1. Abundant runoff production after high intensity precipitation 2. Entrainment of debris material laying on the bottom of channels with formation of a solid-liquid wave 3. Downstream routing of the solid-liquid wave We need three different models for debris flow simulations: 1. Hydrologic model (Rainfall-Runoff) for rocky headwater basins 2. Triggering model for determining the solid-liquid hydrograph 3. Hydraulic model for downstream routing Physical processes associated to debris flow
