Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Several pipe exits were discovered in the torrent bed material in debris flow generation areas of the Nishinokaito River, Mount Fujiwara ,Mie prefecture, Japan. They were emplaced in a sand and gravel layer between 1.0 and 1.5 m below the surface of the torrent bed material. Gravel supported the internal walls of the pipe exits. Subsurface flows spouted when the rainfall intensity exceeded about 5 to 7 mm in 10 minutes and the soil water index exceeded about 110 mm. Hydrological processes such as subsurface flows spouting from pipe exits and its clogging, subsurface flows spouting at the new pipe exits during heavy rainfall may lead to debris flow generation. The critical rainfall thresholds for them were studied using radial basis function network (RBFN) method.
