Geomorphic indexing of landslide dams evolution

If compared with the reviewed state of the art indexes, the newly proposed ones show an improvement in the forecasting effectiveness and have the advantage of being based on morphometric input parameters that can be easily and quickly assessed on a distributed way even over large areas. We propose a tool that is based on the joint use of the newly proposed indexes and that can be used to provide fast and effective assessment on landslide dam formation and stability during emergency or planning activities.
