A fragmentation-spreading model for long-runout rock avalanches

Based on the observation that deposits of large rock avalanches consist predominantly of intensely fragmented rock debris, it is proposed that the processes of rock fragmentation are significant causes of the peculiar distribution of mass in these deposits, and of the correspondingly long runout. Ro...
