XGBoost Meets INLA: A Two‐Stage Spatio‐Temporal Forecasting of Wildfires in Portugal

open access: yesEnvironmetrics, Volume 37, Issue 3, April 2026.
ABSTRACT Wildfires pose a major threat to Portugal, with over 115,000 hectares burned annually on average during 1980–2024, and the country has faced devastating mega‐fires such as those in 2017. Accurate forecasts of wildfire occurrence and burned area are therefore essential for firefighting resource allocation and emergency preparedness.

Evaluation of landslide susceptibility of Sete Cidades Volcano (S. Miguel Island, Azores) [PDF]

open access: yes, 2005
Sete Cidades is an active central volcano with a summit caldera located in the westernmost part of S. Miguel Island (Azores). Since the settlement of the Island, in the 15th century, many landslide events occurred in this volcano, causing extensive ...

High‐Resolution Digital Terrain Model and Land‐Surface Parameters of São Sebastião and Ilhabela, Southeastern Brazil

open access: yesGeoscience Data Journal, Volume 13, Issue 2, April 2026.
The first openly accessible 2 m‐resolution lidar‐based DTM and an extensive set of land‐surface parameters (LSPs) for the region of São Sebastião and Ilhabela, southeastern Brazil, reveal geomorphological features previously indiscernible, including past landslide deposits, drainage captures and structural lineaments.

Landsliding and its multiscale influence on mountainscapes [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
Landsliding is a complex process that modifies mountainscapes worldwide. Its severe and sometimes long-lasting negative effects contrast with the less-documented positive effects on ecosystems, raising numerous questions about the dual role of ...

From spatio-temporal landslide susceptibility to landslide risk forecast

open access: yesGeoscience Frontiers
The literature on landslide susceptibility is rich with examples that span a wide range of topics. However, the component that pertains to the extension of the susceptibility framework toward space–time modeling is largely unexplored. This statement holds true, particularly in the context of landslide risk, where few scientific contributions ...

Configurational Energy as a Microstructural Descriptor of Failure Precursors in 2D Frictional Granular Materials

open access: yesInternational Journal for Numerical and Analytical Methods in Geomechanics, Volume 50, Issue 5, Page 2470-2485, 10 April 2026.
ABSTRACT Localized deformation in dense granular materials, often culminating in the formation of shear bands, is a key failure mechanism in geotechnical and material systems. However, predicting the onset of such localization remains a fundamental challenge due to the system's inherent inelasticity and microstructural complexity.

Effects of Inventory Bias on Landslide Susceptibility Calculations [PDF]

open access: yes
Many landslide inventories are known to be biased, especially inventories for large regions such as Oregon's SLIDO or NASA's Global Landslide Catalog. These biases must affect the results of empirically derived susceptibility models to some degree.

Landslide Activity in the European Alps ‐ Part 1: A Machine Learning Based Instrumental Catalog From the Analysis of Seismological Data

open access: yesJournal of Geophysical Research: Earth Surface, Volume 131, Issue 4, April 2026.
Abstract Landslides in the European Alps are a growing concern in the context of climate change. However, landslide catalogs for the European Alps remain incomplete, often lacking precise timing and containing few, if any, entries for remote areas.
