Predicting outflow induced by moraine failure in glacial lakes: the Lake Palcacocha case from an uncertainty perspective
Moraine dam collapse is one of the causes of glacial lake outburst floods. Available models seek to predict both moraine breach formation and lake outflow. The models depend on hydraulic, erosion, and geotechnical parameters that are mostly unknown or uncertain. This paper estimates the outflow hydr...
