| Abstract | The paper has some value for it illustrates a laboratory research on a physical model of a special debris-flow protection structure. Nevertheless, the paper is rather poor from the scientific point of view: there are a number of errors in scientific terminology (see revised file) several obvious sentences and many typing errors (specially missing blanks between words, present in the hundreds). From the conceptual point of view I have to say that the paper is focused on the capacity of the modelled structures ("herringbone water-sediment separation structures") to sort debris-flow sediments, while the first purpose of debris-flow protection measures should deal with hazard reduction by stopping/slowing debris-flow surges or storing the material in debris basins etc. Sorting debris-flow sediments is a challenge which usually isn’t worth it, since the resulting sorted material is normally of very poor quality as building material, useless for any kind of engineering works, even for road foundations (this is certainly |
