Numerical simulation of long-distance debris flows (lahars) on glacier-clad volcanoes: the case of Cotopaxi, Ecuador

Volcanic debris flows (lahars) are highly destructive volcanic phenomena and present significant challenges in numerical simulation. This manuscript tackles the three fundamental requirements for modelling gravitational flows: determining plausible source configurations; selecting suitable topograph...
