Poster Session 2: B2 Landslides: abstract no. P103Conference Theme: Geotechnical Engineering for Infrastructure and DevelopmentOn the morning of February 20, 2010, a storm triggered flash floods and shallow landslides on the surrounding hillslopes of Madeira’s capital city Funchal causing 46 deaths and an estimated 210 million Euros of rebuilding costs. Funchal is located in a coastal basin that drains three major streams. These streams are in deeply incised valleys and drain sediment and water from the centre of the island to the shore. On February 20, the cumulative rainfall exceeded 300mm within hours in different parts of the Island initiating surface runoff that eroded and entrained loose sediments into the streams and generated the fl...
