3 Aim of this talk 1/ Characteristics of the Barcelonnette Basin: a multi-hazard prone area - Geomorphology and geology - Landuse - Climate 2/ Some statistics on the processes creating risks 3/ Practical examples of risk management - management of debris flow risks - management of the risk associated to large mudslides - example of risk zonation plans 4/ Conclusions 3
4 4 STUDY SITE BARCELONNETTE BASIN (South East French Alps)
5 Several favourable predisposing factors for slope instability Geomorphological features 5
6 Several favourable predisposing factors for slope instability 6 A geological window outcropping the clay shale bedrock
7 Several favourable predisposing factors for slope instability 7 A susceptible sedimentary tectonized bedrock
8 Several favourable predisposing factors for slope instability Glacial cirque 8 The influence of glaciation in the landscape Discontinuous morainic deposits
9 Several favourable predisposing factors for slope instability An evolving landuse: intense deforestation in the 19 th century (agro-pastoral communities) intense gullying 9
10 Several favourable predisposing factors for slope instability 1893 An evolving landuse: intense deforestation in the 19 th century (agro-pastoral communities) intense landsliding 10
11 Several favourable predisposing factors for slope instability 1897 An evolving landuse: during the 20 th century, intense reforestation for torrential control 2003
12 Several favourable predisposing factors for slope instability An evolving landuse: during the 20 th century, intense reforestation for torrential control
13 The actual landscape: contrast South/North slopes South-facing slope: high energy relief - intense gullying discontinuous morainic cover W E North-facing slope: landsliding high thickness morainic cover E 13 W
14 A favourable climate for slope instability Alpine climate with Mediterranean influence - High inter annual rainfall variability (735 mm ± 400 mm; ) - Mean annual temperature: 7.5 ± 1.3 ; ) - Presence of a snowpack on the upper slopes (> 1900m) for 4 to 6 months - intense thunderstorms I max > 50 mm.h -1 14
15 Climate Landslide relationships ( ) Archive investigation and dendrochronological analyses at several time scales - Annual time scale: periods of landslide activity are correlated to excess yearly rainfall amounts, but landslide events are also observed in relatively dry periods - Daily time scale: 2 types of climate situations Type A: heavy daily rain (shallow slides) Type B: heavy 30-days rain (deep-seated slides) 15
16 16 SOME STATISTICS ON THE HAZARDS
17 Observed natural hazards since 1850 Flageollet et al., 1994 (Teslec) Source: ONF-RTM database & regional archive Distribution of landslide types Distribution of flood types 17 Major problems: - exhaustivity of the database - approximative dating - wrong identification of the type of process
18 Inventory of landslide types ca. 60% ca. 42% Translationnal (Faucon) Active rotational (Poche torrent) ca. 75% Relict rotational (Poche torrent) 18
