Field-validated imaging of decadal and seasonal changes in permafrost bedrock using quantitative electrical resistivity tomography (Zugspitze, Germany/Austria) [PDF]

open access: yesThe Cryosphere
Ongoing permafrost degradation in alpine regions requires monitoring methods that accurately decipher spatial and temporal dynamics. Electrical resistivity tomography (ERT) is widely applied in bedrock permafrost, yet its outputs are often interpreted ...

How ice apron loss and permafrost degradation promoted the Platteikogel rock slope failure: a thermo-mechanical reconstruction [PDF]

open access: yesEarth Surface Dynamics
The Alpine cryosphere changes at unprecedented speed, affecting the thermal, hydrological, and mechanical state and behaviour of rock slopes. While numerous studies investigated singular drivers for progressive rock slope failures, the knowledge of hydro-

Landslide Identification Method Based on the FKGRNet Model for Remote Sensing Images

open access: yesRemote Sensing, 2023
Currently, researchers commonly use convolutional neural network (CNN) models for landslide remote sensing image recognition. However, with the increase in landslide monitoring data, the available multimodal landslide data contain rich feature ...

Numerous landslides and landslide restorations – an example [PDF]

open access: yesActa Montanistica Slovaca, 2012
Numerous landslides appeared in a smaller area of north-western Croatia during a short span of time ; in a large number of cases these landslides infringed upon local roads, public objects and other landscape. As is well known, the phenomenon of multiple landslides is connected to specific hydrometeorological features of the period, but also with ...

Massive permafrost rock slide under a warming polythermal glacier deciphered through mechanical modeling (Bliggspitze, Austria) [PDF]

open access: yesEarth Surface Dynamics
Recent studies have brought to light large amounts of evidence for enhanced rock slope failure from degrading permafrost rock walls. These failures have previously been thought to be subaerial and triggered by thermal heat propagation from rising air ...

Landslide Topography of the Sumikawa Landslide

open access: yesLandslides, 1998
A landslide occurred at Sumikawa hot-spa in Kazuno City, Akita Prefecture on May 11, 1997. The landslide destroyed 9 houses of Sumikawa hotspa and the debris avalanche changed from landslide hit Akakawa hotspa and national road No.341. Since the Kazuno city office issued the refuge advice, the human damage was not generated.This study based on field ...

Landscape, Livelihoods and Risk: Community Vulnerability to Landslides in Nepal [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
The occurrence of fatal landslides in Nepal is increasing with time, faster than the effects of monsoonal variations. Possible explanations for the trends observed include: land-use change, population growth, and the development of transport ...

Decadal in situ hydrological observations and empirical modeling of pressure head in a high-alpine, fractured calcareous rock slope [PDF]

open access: yesEarth Surface Dynamics
In peri- and paraglacial regions, water plays a critical role in the hydrological cycle and slope stability. However, hydrological models often overlook water infiltration into bedrock due to limited knowledge of groundwater dynamics at high elevations ...

Hillslope memory and spatial and temporal distributions of earthquake-induced landslides [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Large earthquakes commonly trigger widespread and destructive landsliding. However, current approaches to modeling regional-scale landslide activity do not account for the temporal evolution of progressive failure in brittle hillslope materials ...
