Short summary
The paper integrates land and marine geological data with meteorological, hydraulic, and hydrological analyses, as well as historical documentation of past events, to model the 9 September 2010 flash flood which occurred at Atrani, Amalfi Coast, southern Italy. The approach used is representative of small ungauged watersheds with local communities living at stream mouths, aiding proper land use planning, damage mitigation, and reduction of human fatalities.
