Reconstitution of landslide activity using dendrogeomorphology

open access: closed, 2011
Landslides constitute a common mass movement process and a widespread hazard in mountain where they cause damage and destruction to settlements, transportation corridors, or even lead to the loss of life. A major obstacle for the knowledge of past landslide activity is the lack of historical data with satisfying spatial resolution over medium to long ...

Reconstructing the history of landslides in northern Japan through dendrogeomorphology

open access: gold
Dendrogeomorphology serves as a method to determine the timing of historical landslide events. This approach entails scrutinizing the spatial and temporal aspects of landslide occurrences by investigating their impact on tree growth by analyzing variations in tree-ring width, recovery timeline of injured tree stem, as well as the age of tree invasion ...

Snow–avalanche history reconstructed with tree rings in Parâng Mountains (Southern Carpathians, Romania)

open access: yesRevista de Geomorfologie, 2020
Snow avalanches are a common phenomenon in Parâng Mountains (Southern Carpathians, Romania) perturbing tourism activities and associated infrastructures, damaging forests, and causing fatalities.

A new tree-ring-based index for the expression of spatial landslide activity and the assessment of landslide hazards

open access: yesGeomatics, Natural Hazards & Risk, 2021
Dendrogeomorphic methods enable a very accurate reconstruction of spatio-temporal landslide behaviour. Unfortunately, existing approaches of spatial reconstruction suffer from many imperfections (e.g. dependence on tree age or impact of forest management)

Dendrogeomorphic reconstruction of past landslide activity in the Jablůnka village (Czech part of the Outer Western Carpathians)

open access: yesRevista de Geomorfologie, 2022
Landslides represent an important and possibly very dangerous natural hazard. Dendrogeomorphic methods can provide unique data on the behaviour of landslides in the past by studying the tree-ring series of disturbed trees. Knowledge about past landslide

The Historic Avalanche that Destroyed the Village of Àrreu in 1803, Catalan Pyrenees

open access: yesGeosciences, 2020
The purpose of the present study was to reconstruct the avalanche which destroyed the village of Àrreu in 1803 to solve the unknowns about this historic event, and in a broader context, to improve the knowledge about these low-frequency avalanches in the

Tropical and subtropical dendrochronology: Approaches, applications, and prospects

open access: yesEcological Indicators, 2022
Tropical and subtropical forests cover only 7 % of the Earth’s land surface. Yet, they host nearly half of global tree density with a high species number (∼40,000 species), store up to 25 % of global terrestrial carbon and represent one-third of net ...
