Georg Nagl

Georg Nagl is a researcher at the Institute of Alpine Natural Hazards under the Department of Agricultural Sciences at the University of Natural Resources and Life Sciences, Vienna. His work focuses on debris flow mechanics, natural hazard mitigation, and infrastructure resilience.

Research Interests:

• Debris flow dynamics
• Impact force analysis
• Natural hazard monitoring
• Climate-resilient infrastructure
• Geotechnical disaster prevention
• Mountain torrent management

Scientific Contributions: His recent publications analyze temporal/spatial debris flow patterns, stress anisotropy in flows, and innovative monitoring barriers. Keywords span environmental engineering, geotechnics, and hydrology.

Theses Supervision: Supervised the Master's thesis Evaluation of methods for determining the discharge of a debris flow on the Lattenbach (2023).

Project Involvement: Active in EU/national projects like Nature-Based Solutions for Climate-Resilient Critical Infrastructure (2024-2028) and Detection of rockfall using structure-borne sound (2023-2025), focusing on hazard reduction technologies.
