This study identified the key controls on debris-flow erosion based on field data, showing that flow conditions and bed wetness jointly control erosion. Shear forces and particle-impact forces are strongly correlated and play important roles in the erosion process.
Debris flows can grow greatly in size and hazardous potential by eroding bed and bank materials. However, erosion mechanisms are poorly understood because debris flows are complex hybrids between a fluid flow and a moving mass of colliding particles, bed erodibility varies between events, and field measurements are hard to obtain. Here, we identify the key controls on debris-flow erosion based on a field data set that combines information on flow properties, bed conditions, and bed and bank erosion. We show that flow conditions and bed wetness jointly control debris-flow erosion. Flow conditions describing the cumulative forces exerted at the bed during an event best explain erosion. Shear forces and particle-impact forces are strongly correlated and act in conjunction in the erosion process. A shear-stress approach accounting for bed erodibility may therefore be applicable for modeling and predicting debris-flow erosion. This work provides a foundation for developing effective debris-flow erosion models.
