Large debris flows occur frequently from these deposits and form dams that block streams. In this paper,3 events of large debris flows reported in Peilong Valley located in Southeast Tibet,and which resulted 2 blocking dams resulted,are discussed in details,focusing on the major factors controlling dam formation. The results shows that the first surge group caused by snow and ice avalanches,ice-lake breaks,and large-scale landslides,with a high peak discharge and high velocity,and an abundance of boulders,are most likely to form blocking dams.展开更多
