Cover Story: Sediment gravity flows (debris flows and high-sediment-concentration hyperconcentrated flows) cause serious damage in the Alpine regions. A multidisciplinary approach has been implemented to quantify the sediment gravity flow causes and characteristics starting from the catchments’ features. The research focused on 78 well-documented catchments of Susa Valley (Western Italian Alps) with 614 historical flow events reported. As a result, three catchment groups were recognized, based on the dominant catchment lithology, that influence the sediment gravity flows’ rheology, sedimentological and depositional features, triggering rainfall values, seasonality, frequency, and alluvial fan architecture. Moreover, we have demonstrated the fundamental role played by the bedrock outcropping percentage in determining the flow process type that can most likely occur in each catchment. View this paper
