An integrated approach for evaluating the effectiveness of landslide risk reduction in unplanned communities in the Caribbean [PDF]
Despite the recognition of the need for mitigation approaches to landslide risk in developing countries, the delivery of ‘on-the-ground’ measures is rarely undertaken. With respect to other ‘natural’ hazards it is widely reported that mitigation can pay.

Impacts of anthropogenic and environmental factors on the occurrence of shallow landslides in an alpine catchment (Urseren Valley, Switzerland) [PDF]
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.

Roles of Remote Sensing Technology in Landslide Risk Management of Hong Kong
Natural terrain covers over 60% of the land area of Hong Kong. With the close proximity of developments to hillsides and high annual rainfall, Hong Kong is under a constant threat from natural terrain landslides.

Effect of rock weathering, clay mineralogy, and geological structures in the formation of large landslide, a case study from Dumre Besei landslide, Lesser Himalaya Nepal [PDF]
The Dumre Besi landslide is one of the largest and most problematic failures on the Mugling-Narayanghat Highway in central Nepal. Though it was triggered by the monsoon rain of 2003, geological structures and rock weathering have played a key role in its
