Abstract. During, andabnormally wet conditions in Utah triggered flash floods, landslides, and debris flows. Pore pressures built in hillside soils below melting snows and during prolonged periods of rainfall until the mass suddenly gave way, sometimes as a landslide and other times as a non-Newtonian debris flow Cited by: Delineation of Landslide, Flash Flood, and Debris Flow Hazards in Utah [Utah Water Research Laboratory, David S.

The high flood hazard results from the complex interaction of the area s rugged topography and southwestern Utah s seasonal weather patterns. Three types of floods typically occur in the study area: (1) riverine (stream) floods, (2) flash floods/debris flows, and (3) sheetfloods.

Tom's field-based research focuses primarily on volcano hazards involving the mobilization and rapid movement of rock debris, ice, and water mixtures down the flanks of volcanoes—lahars, debris avalanches, and floods.
Other hazards, such as flash floods and debris flows, now become the focus. Areas recently burned by wildfires are particularly susceptible to flash floods and debris flows during rainstorms. Attribution: Natural Hazards, Landslide Hazards Program, Geologic Hazards Science Center.
Hazards in Utah Potential Disasters. Because of its varying climate and terrain, Utah can experience a variety of disasters. Wildfires can strike during the hot, dry summer months and severe storms during the winter season can blanket parts of the state, causing power outages and increased avalanche danger.
Landslide & Debris Flow Landslide and Debris Flow (Mudslide) Landslides are a serious geologic hazard common to almost every state in the United States. It is estimated that nationally they cause up to $2 billion in damages and from 25 to 50 deaths annually.
which may occur after a landslide or debris flow. Floods sometimes follow. First there was fire. Then rain. And now deadly debris flows are devastating Montecito, California.
More than a dozen people are missing or dead, and at least homes have been damaged or destroyed by fast-moving floods that swept mud, rocks, and charred wood left exposed by the Thomas fire.
The Operational Land Imager (OLI) on Landsat 8 acquired natural-color imagery. Debris flow video courtesy of Sue Cannon, landslide researcher with the US Geological Survey in Denver, Colorado. This video was taken by a television crew from Denver next to Interstate 70 near.Landslide hazards have resulted in at least fatalities in Utah sincewith 90 percent of those deaths from snow avalanches and 10 percent from landslides, rockfalls, and debris flows.
While nearly all the recorded deaths since have been caused by human-triggered avalanches, many of these events have occurred in developed areas where appropriate mitigation measures .
