Analysis of the convective timescale during the major floods in the NE Iberian Peninsula since 1871
Pino González, David; Reynés, Artur; Mazón Bueso, Jordi; Balasch Solanes, Josep Carles; Ruiz Bellet, Josep Lluís; Tuset Mestre, Jordi; Barriendos Valve, Mariano; Castelltort, Xavier (2016)
Conference lecture
Open AccessFloods are the most severe natural hazard in the western Mediterranean basin. They cause most of the damages and most of the victims. Some of the selected floods caused more than one hundred casualties each and a large ... -
Climatic and social factors behind the Spanish Mediterranean flood event chronologies from documentary sources (14th–20th centuries)
Barriendos Valve, Mariano; Gil-Guirado, Salvador; Pino González, David; Tuset Mestre, Jordi; Pérez Morales, Alfredo; Alberola, Armando; Costa, Joan; Balasch Solanes, Josep Carles; Castelltort, Xavier; Mazón Bueso, Jordi; Ruiz Bellet, Josep Lluís (2019-11-01)
Article
Open AccessThe Spanish Mediterranean river basin provides a good background for studying floods from documentary and bibliographical sources within the specialty of historical climatology. This study region's long history of human ... -
Gravel deposit produced by a flash paleoflood in a succession of Quaternary terraces in the Plain of Vic (NE Iberian Peninsula)
Castelltort, Xavier; Colombo Piñol, Ferran; Balasch Solanes, Josep Carles; Barriendos Valve, Mariano; Mazón Bueso, Jordi; Pino González, David; Ruiz Bellet, Josep Lluís; Tuset Mestre, Jordi (2016)
Conference lecture
Open AccessIn contrast with the abundance of studies of fluvial terraces, caused by river dynamics, there are very few descriptions of alluvial deposits produced by flash floods and mass movements. This ... -
Historical flood data series of Eastern Spanish Coast (14th-20th centuries). Improving identification of climatic patterns and human factors of flood events from primary documentary sources
Alberola, Armando; Barriendos Valve, Mariano; Gil-Guirado, Salvador; Pérez Morales, Alfredo; Balasch Solanes, Josep Carles; Castelltort, Xavier; Mazón Bueso, Jordi; Pino González, David; Ruiz Bellet, Josep Lluís; Tuset Mestre, Jordi (2016)
Conference lecture
Open AccessHistorical flood events in eastern spanish coast have been studied by different research groups and projects. Complexity of flood processes, involving atmospheric, surface and human factors, is not easily ... -
Meteorological and hydrological analysis of major floods in NE Iberian Peninsula
Pino González, David; Ruiz Bellet, Josep Lluís; Balasch Solanes, Josep Carles; Tuset Mestre, Jordi; Barriendos Valve, Mariano; Mazón Bueso, Jordi; Castelltort, Xavier (Elsevier, 2016-09-30)
Article
Open AccessThis paper analyses the meteorological conditions and the specific peak flows of 24 catastrophic floods that affected NE Iberian Peninsula in the period 1842–2000. We classify these floods according to the affected area, ... -
Middle Triassic evaporite sedimentation in the Catalan basin: implications for the paleogeographic evolution in the NE Iberian platform
Ortí, Federico; Salvany Duran, Josep Maria; Rosell, Laura; Castelltort, Xavier; Inglès, Montserrat; Playà, Elisabet (2018-10)
Article
Open AccessThe eastern sector of the epicontinental Iberian platform underwent restriction after the sedimentation of the lower Muschelkalk carbonates (Middle Triassic) under extensional regime. This resulted in the accumulation of ... -

The 2-3 November 2015 flood of the Sió River (NE Iberian Peninsula): a flash flood that turns into a mudflow downstream
Balasch Solanes, Josep Carles; Ruiz Bellet, Josep Lluís; Rodríguez, Rafael; Tuset Mestre, Jordi; Castelltort, Xavier; Barriendos Valve, Mariano; Pino González, David; Mazón Bueso, Jordi (2016)
Conference lecture
Open AccessHistorical and recent evidence shows that many floods in the interior of Catalonia (NE Iberian Peninsula) usually have such a great sediment load that can even alter the hydraulic behaviour of the flow. This is especially ... -
The extreme floods in the Ebro River basin since 1600 CE
Balasch Solanes, Josep Carles; Pino González, David; Ruiz Bellet, Josep Lluís; Tuset Mestre, Jordi; Barriendos Valve, Mariano; Castelltort, Xavier; Peña, Juan Carlos (Elsevier, 2018-07-28)
Article
Open AccessReliable and complete knowledge of the historical floods is necessary for understanding the extreme hydrological dynamics of the rivers, their natural variability and anthropic changes. In this work we reconstruct the most ... -
