Coupling Data- and Knowledge-Driven Methods for Landslide Susceptibility Mapping in Human-Modified Environments: A Case Study from Wanzhou County, Three Gorges Reservoir Area, China

open access: yesRemote Sensing, 2022
Landslide susceptibility mapping (LSM) can provide valuable information for local governments in landslide prevention and mitigation. Despite significant improvements in the predictive performance of LSM, it remains a challenge to be carried out in areas

Multi-source landslide inventories for susceptibility assessment: a case study in the Concepción Metropolitan Area, Chile

open access: yesFrontiers in Earth Science
The Concepción Metropolitan Area (CMA) in South-Central Chile presents a complex interplay of climatic conditions, tectonic activity, and varied topography that heightens landslide susceptibility. The CMA is characterized by steep escarpments and sloping

An Application of Sentinel-1, Sentinel-2, and GNSS Data for Landslide Susceptibility Mapping

open access: yesISPRS International Journal of Geo-Information, 2020
In this study, we used Sentinel-1 and Sentinel-2 data to delineate post-earthquake landslides within an object-based image analysis (OBIA). We used our resulting landslide inventory map for training the data-driven model of the frequency ratio (FR) for ...

Statistical and expert-based landslide susceptibility modeling on a national scale applied to North Macedonia

open access: yesOpen Geosciences, 2019
This article presents a Geographic Information System (GIS) assessment of Landslide Susceptibility Zonation (LSZ) in North Macedonia. Because of the weak landslide inventory, statistical method (frequency ratio) is combined with Analytical Hierarchy ...

From Landslide Inventories to Landslide Risk Assessment; An Attempt to Support Methodological Development in India

open access: yes, 2013
India is now housing 17% of the world’s population. Landslides are an increasing concern in India due to the rapid population expansion in hilly and mountainous terrain. Landslides affect vast areas within India, in particular in the Himalayan chain in the North and Eastern part of the country and the Western Ghats in the Southwest.

Completeness Index for Earthquake-Induced Landslide Inventories

open access: yesEngineering Geology, 2020
Understanding the global relation between Earthquake-Induced Landslides (EQILs) and the factors contributing to their initiation is still an open topic within the geomorphological community. Accessing EQIL inventories and analyzing them concerning their potential causes is the key to explore such relation. However, each of the existing EQIL inventories

Weather Action: A Study on the Industry Peer Effects of Corporate Climate Risk Information Disclosure

open access: yesBusiness Strategy and the Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Global climate change has elevated the strategic importance of corporate climate risk disclosure, yet the role of industry peer effects in shaping such disclosure remains underexplored. Grounded in social learning theory, this study proposes an “observation–imitation–reinforcement” framework and empirically tests it using panel data on Chinese

Combined landslide inventory and susceptibility assessment based on different mapping units: an example from the Flemish Ardennes, Belgium [PDF]

open access: yesNatural Hazards and Earth System Sciences, 2009
For a 277 km<sup>2</sup> study area in the Flemish Ardennes, Belgium, a landslide inventory and two landslide susceptibility zonations were combined to obtain an optimal landslide susceptibility assessment, in five classes. For the experiment,
