“…Contemporary research of the phenomena is primarily focused on densely inhabited mountain areas where DFs represent a major geomorphic hazard (Lavigne and Suwa, 2004). A large number of studies centre on the predisposition and triggering factors of DFs out of which the most important ones include morphometry of source areas (Rowbotham et al, 2005), geological structure of slopes (Bovis and Jakob, 1999;Sterling and Slaymaker, 2007;Sas and Eaton, 2008) and precipitation intensity preceding the DFs occurrence (Fiorillo and Wilson, 2004;Chen, 2006;Cannon et al, 2008;Coe et al, 2008). Recently, there has been a growing effort to reconstruct the DF activity from the spatial-temporal point of view by means of dendrogeomorphological methods (Santilli and Pelfini, 2002;Bollschweiler et al, 2007Bollschweiler et al, , 2008; Morton et al, 2008).…”

“…The threshold of rainfall to generate landslides has lowered significantly since the 1999 Chi-Chi earthquake in the Chenyoulan River of central Taiwan. Some of the pertinent studies have focused on the effect of the landsliding distribution on steeper slope (Iverson et al, 1997;Chen et al, 2006), and examined the difference between landslides triggered by typhoon and those by earthquake, respectively (Keefer et al, 1987;Lin et al, 2003;Chen, 2006;Lin et al, 2008).…”

“…There is a close relationship between extreme precipitation events and the occurrence of debris flows as some authors pointed out (Kapusta et al (2010), Fussgänger and Jadroň (2001), Kopecký (2001), Chen (2006) and Larsen et al (2006). It can be connected with climate changes (Larsson, 1982;Addison, 1987;Zimmermann, Haeberli, 1992;Deline et al, 2004;Jomelli, 2004;Pavlova, 2011).…”

Tomko-Králo D., Hreško J., Jakab I.: Impact of water-induced processes on development of the tarns and their basins in the High Tatras. Ekológia (Bratislava), Vol. 36, No. 3, p. 247-267, 2017. In the report we concentrate on the influences of water-induced morphodynamic processes and surface flow on the development of tarns in alpine environment conditions of selected valleys in the High Tatras. Model areas are represented by higher basins parts in the Malá Studená valley and the Veľká Studená valley, where we confirmed that slope-gravitational processes in the form of rockfall, water-gravitational processes in the form of debris flows, but also fluvial-proluvial processes as the accumulation of the soft fractions from the area of debris cones take part in the material deposition in the tarns. In this context we focused on the creation of the model of spatial distribution of the water-induced potential of material deposition in drainage tarn basins. The model includes three basic factors: slope and curvature of the relief and land cover character. Map processing with GIS technologies was done on the basis of a 3-D relief model, which allowed the locating of the local erosion bases areas, where the material could be accumulated. The achieved results confirmed the hypothesis that tarn basin development of the alpine environment is subordinated to permanent backfilling as a consequence of the cumulative influence of the several processes connected with rainfall and the runoff regime of the drainage basins.
