Impacts of anthropogenic and environmental factors on the occurrence of shallow landslides in an alpine catchment (Urseren Valley, Switzerland) [PDF]
, 2008 Changes in climate and land use pose a risk to stability of alpine soils, but the direction and magnitude of the impact is still discussed controversially with respect to the various alpine regions.

Disaggregation of Landslide Risk
Earth's Future, Volume 14, Issue 4, April 2026.Abstract Quantifying and disaggregating landslide risk through probabilistic landslide risk analysis (PLRA) is critical for land use regulation and risk reduction. However, no transferable model for PLRA currently exists that resolves landslide consequences to individual buildings at regional scales.

Fault Friction, Plate Rheology, and Mantle Torques From a Global Dynamic Model of Neotectonics
Journal of Geophysical Research: Solid Earth, Volume 131, Issue 4, April 2026.Abstract Improvements in software, parallel computing, global data sets, and laboratory flow‐laws help to develop the global Earth5 thin‐shell finite‐element model of Bird et al. (2008, https://doi.org/10.1029/2007jb005460) into a benchmark study. All experiments confirm that modeled faults (other than megathrusts) have low effective friction of 0.085 ±

The dynamics of reactivated landslides: Utiku and Taihape, North Island, New Zealand [PDF]
, 2010 The primary aim of this research was to study the relationship between landslide motion and its causes, with reference to large, slow moving, reactivated translational rock slides.

Journal of Geophysical Research: Earth Surface, Volume 131, Issue 4, April 2026.Abstract Earthquakes are a primary trigger for landslides, often leading to catastrophic consequences. While numerous studies have explored the spatial distribution of earthquake‐triggered landslides, understanding the interaction between seismic waves and topography remains a critical challenge.

Mechanisms of Shallow Rainfall-induced Landslides in Residual Soils in Humid Tropical Environments [PDF]
, 2007 Landslide mechanisms and processes, particularly within the basal deformation region during failure, are poorly understood in the current knowledge.

Dependence of Coseismic Landslide Distribution Patterns on Fault Movement
Applied SciencesFaults are the primary drivers of earthquakes and exert a strong control on rupture mechanisms, earthquake magnitude, and the spatial distribution of coseismic landslides (CLs). However, how CL spatial distribution patterns vary with faulting style remains poorly constrained.

Multimodal method for landslide risk analysis
MethodsX, 2019 Quantitative landslide risk analysis is a key step in creating appropriate land use policies. However, regional scale landslide hazard and risk studies are traditionally based on a single, infinite-slope style of failure, belying the differing ...
