There is a lack of information about enabling and triggering factors of debris flows in the densely populated coastal slopes of the Crimean Mountains. In such respect, it is useful to reconstruct a chronology of historical debris flow events and correlate them with time series of relevant meteorological characteristics. We utilized dendrogeomorphological methods using 566 individuals of Pinus nigra for inferring age of 215 debris flow events. The oldest event is dated to 1701 and the highest dec
