Abstract
Glacial lake outburst floods (GLOFs) are potentially highly dangerous events and have contributed to numerous disasters in history. Today, computer models are standard tools to estimate the magnitude of hazardous events in the future and to support risk mitigation. The present paper explores the potentials and limitations of modelling for predicting the motion of potential future GLOF events, based on examples from the Pamir (Tajikistan). Since the flow behaviour of GLOFs is in between debris flows and floods, different model approach
