Method and provenance
- Production method
- Combines open seismic records, Sentinel-1 backscatter change, emergency mapping, and official reports; downstream gauge and barrier-lake statements are reported from cited sources rather than new direct field observations.
- Provenance
- Authored by Donghua Xu and deposited in EarthArXiv; the repository record, Crossref metadata, version statement, and current PDF establish the DOI, version, dates, authorship, and licence.
- Validation
- Not Peer Reviewed
- Uncertainty
- Changed surface is not detached source volume. Available open data do not distinguish an avalanche-emplaced debris flow from rapid debris-dam release as the first-wave mechanism. Main barrier-lake overflow is dated 28 August, not 26 August.
- Limitations
- No public post-event high-resolution elevation model was available; monsoon cloud prevented post-event optical analysis, post-event SAR coverage was limited to one acquisition, and seasonal surface change could not be fully excluded.
