Abstract
This research explores safety for residing and enduring mountain floods. The research method includes following components: 1) studying geomorphic concepts of mountain floods and debris flows; 2) field investigations of the 2013 flood high impact zones and the optimal areas in foothills of Colorado Front Range to identify landform patterns in light of feng-shui, Chinese geomancy; and 3) studying successful precedents withstanding mountainous floods. From large-scale site selections to details of topographic design, this cross-culture study provides criteria and strategy on improving the site selection process for enduring mountain floods and sustaining mountain communities in Colorado and beyond.
