Outline of Final Research Achievements

To predict a debris flow that reaches downstream, we monitored debris-flow surges flowing into the fan apex and carried out multi-temporal and high-definition topographic surveys in the debris-flow fan within the Ichino-Sawa torrent. Avulsion and channelization processes in debris-flow fans lead to the discharge of stored sediment involved with the rainfall-runoff process as flash floods via substantial changes in fan topography. Before avulsion, channel plugging by backfilling deposition in the channel increases elevation at the fan apex. Consequently, slopes around the fan apex exceeded the equilibrium slope for unsaturated debris flows, with which a debris flow can reach far downstream. The increased slopes around the fan apex, in addition to the stages in the avulsion and channelization cycle, are responsible for triggering “high-risk” debris flows. The intensive topographic surveys would allow us to identify the risk throughout monitoring the fan morphology.

Academic Significance and Societal Importance of the Research Achievements

従来のフラッシュフラッド研究の多くが局所豪雨の評価・予測の枠組み内で実施されてきた.それに対して,降雨-流出時に生じる河床材料の侵食が急激な流出ピークの形成に寄与することでフラッシュフラッドの危険性を高めることを,土石流の流下プロセスと地形形成の相互作用を解明したうえで示した点が本研究の学術的な意義である.近年の技術革新によって安価・簡便に実施可能になった高頻度・高精細な地形測量によって,フラッシュフラッドの発生予測精度を向上させることが可能であることを示した点に社会的な意義がある.
