Insights into the differential fragmentation processes in rock avalanche emplacement from field investigation and experimental study
Fragmentation is a universal phenomenon associated with rock avalanches, resulting in an abundance of complex sedimentological structures. If studied in detail, these structures can provide insights into rock avalanche emplacement processes. Here, six typical avalanche cases are carefully analyzed i...
