Emergency field investigations found that paddy fields, dry land, residential buildings and roads suffered different degrees of impact from the debris flow. This paper reveals the formation process of the debris flow by analyzing the characteristics of rainfall precipitation and sediment supply conditions in the study area and it approaches the practical application of hazard prevention and mitigation constructions. Doppler weather radar analysis indicates that a very high intensity rainfall occurred in the middle and upper zones of the basin, illustrating the importance of enhancing rainfall monitoring in high-altitude areas. The abundant supply of deposits in gully channels is among the significant causes of a transformation from mountain floods to large-scale debris flows. It was also found that the two culverts played an important role in the movement affecting the processes of debris flows which has substantially aggravated the destructive outcome. The excessive supply of solid material and local blockage with outburst along a gully must receive significant attention for the prediction of future debris flows, hazard prevention and mitigation measures. Keywords: debris flow; heavy rainfall; supply condition; scale amplification; blockage with outburst 1. Introduction Debris flows have been posed a great threat to human beings, infrastructure (e.g., roads, tunnels, bridges) and residences in mountainous areas. In recent years, the number of debris flow events increased because of the combination of high intensity rainfalls and the availability of solid material due to the seismic load in Southwest China after the 2008 Wenchuan Earthquake [1–3]. Debris flow essentially is a solid-liquid mixture routing on very high slopes. More refined descriptions of debris flows are provided by Iverson [4,5]. A debris flow can be initiated from the shallow failure induced by high pore water pressure within shearing slip zones or from sediment entrainment into runoff by erosion. Runoff-generated debris flow is characterized by the rapid movement and the sufficient runoff to disperse solid grains throughout the whole depth of flow [6–8]. The movement process of runoff-generated debris flow is usually accompanied with the entrainment of a large quantity of debris material. Therefore, they occur in the mountainous areas of Southwest China when they are hit by heavy rainfall that can cause abundant runoff that is able to entrain large quantities of debris Water 2019, 11, 169; doi:10.3390/w11010169 www.mdpi.com/journal/water Water 2019, 11, 169 2 of 17 Water 2019, 1 x FOR PEER REVIEW 2 of 17 material.

Such events increased deposits on the propagation direction. The runout area and deposition depth depend on the debris over the past years due to the increase of (1) extreme rainfall [35], (2) the melting of glaciers [36] flow volume [30–34]. Such events increased over the past years due to the increase of (1) extreme induced by climate change and (3) in particular cases, great earthquakes, such as the Wenchuan rainfall [35], (2) the melting of glaciers [36] induced by climate change and (3) in particular cases, earthquakes [37–43]. great earthquakes, such as the Wenchuan earthquakes [37–43].

  • My Visits to the Hmong in the Triangle of Guizhou, Sichuan and Yunnan
    A Hmong Scholar’s Visit to China: the Hmong in the Triangle of Guizhou, Sichuan and Yunnan by Kou Yang Nyob luag ntuj yoog luag txuj, nyob luag av yoog luag tsav (‘In Rome be like the Romans’--- Hmong proverb) I have made a few visits to the Hmong of the triangle of Guizhou, Sichuan and Yunnan, and will highlight below two of these visits: the visit in August 2009 to the Hmong of Qianxi (黔西),and my 2014 visit to the Hmong of Xingwen, Gong xian, Junlian, Gulin, Xuyong, Yanjin, Yiliang and Zhaotong. In early August 2009, I led a group of international scholars of Hmong studies to do a post conference visit to the Hmong/Miao in Guizhou Province, China. This visit was under the auspices and sponsorship of the Guizhou Miao Studies Association (also known as the Miao Cultural Development Association), and the guidance of its Vice-President, Professor Zhang Xiao. The group visited both Qiandongnan (Southeast Guizhou) and Qianxi (West Guizhou) Hmong/Miao of Guizou. The visit was my third trip to Qiandongnan, so it was not so special because I had previously written about and travelled to many areas within Qiandongnan. Moreover, Qiandongnan has been Guizhou’s premier cultural tourist region for decades; the Hmu represent the largest sub-group of the Miao in Qiandongnan. The language of the Hmu belongs to the Eastern branch of the Miao language. Economically, educationally, and politically, the Hmu are much better off than the Hmong and Ah Mao, who speak the Western branch of the Miao language. For example, I met with so many politicians, bureaucrats and professors of Hmu ancestry in Guiyang, but only one professor of Hmong descent.

  • Public Space Design for Urban Complex Public Space Design of the Metropolitan Urban Complex, Xuyong, Luzhou, China
    Public Space Design for Urban Complex Public Space Design of the Metropolitan urban complex, Xuyong, Luzhou, China SHAN XIAO Professional Project Report April 9, 2014 D e p a r t m e n t of Urban and Regional Planning University of Wisconsin - M a d i s o n CCC Executive Summary I choose this project as a continuity of what I did during the internship last summer. It’s a large-scale urban design project; I cooperated with the project team to come up with an urban design sketch, I took the responsibility of the public space design of the Metropolitan urban complex. I begin this paper by asking myself as planners, as urban designers, what can we do to make the public space attractive, comfortable, and at the same time support and reflect the attributes of the urban complex? In search of the answers, I did extensive literature readings and researches to explore the fundamental principles of landscape and environmental design of urban complex. I also did plenty of case studies of excellent public space design to learn practical techniques designers employed when doing an actual project. Through studying, I concluded several principles that are particularly worth noting, such as designs should be people oriented and commerce oriented, should be integrated into larger cultural context and urban texture, and should shape a sense of place. Bases on these guidelines, I developed my public space design for the Metropolitan urban complex in Xuyong, Luzhou, China. I used Photoshop, CAD, Sketchup to come up with the final deliverables. I finished this report with acknowledgement of the significance of architectural environment, and conclusions of schemes to improve the environment during the design process.
