Creation of a Landslide Susceptibility Map Using Short‐Term Data From the July 2018 Heavy Rainfall in Southern Hiroshima Prefecture

Geological Journal, EarlyView.
This work advances landslide susceptibility mapping by incorporating short‐term trigger data with landscape susceptibility mapping. We also examine the importance of downsampling, watershed delineation and geospatial correlations in evaluating outcomes.

Assessing Landslide Damming susceptibility in Central Asia

Natural Hazards and Earth System Sciences, 2023
Abstract. Central Asia regions are characterized by active tectonics, high mountain chains with extreme topography with glaciers and strong seasonal rainfall events. These key predisposing factors make large landslides a serious natural threat in the area, causing several casualties every year.

Global Dynamic Landslide Susceptibility Modeling Based on ResNet18: Revealing Large-Scale Landslide Hazard Evolution Trends in China

Applied Sciences
Large-scale and long-term landslide susceptibility assessments are crucial for revealing the patterns of landslide risk variation and for guiding the formulation of disaster prevention and mitigation policies at the national level.

Overcoming the data limitations in landslide susceptibility modeling. [PDF]

Sci Adv
Data-driven models widely used for assessing landslide susceptibility are severely limited by the landslide and environmental data needed to create them. They rely on inventories of past landslide locations, which are difficult to collect and often nonrepresentative.

Heat, Health and Holidays: Reported Heat Related Adjustments to Australian Tourist Behaviour

International Journal of Climatology, EarlyView.
This study assessed how climate‐related hazards affect Australian tourists' travel planning. While 80% of tourists report no impact, the 20% who do experience disruption most commonly change their activities, timing, or destination, with heat and rain affecting the same proportion of tourists across beach, city, nature, and family tourism types ...

Influence of Landslide Activity Characteristics on Landslide Susceptibility Assessment: A Case Study in the Upper Jinsha River

Remote Sensing
The geological environment is characterized by continuous dynamic changes. Landslide activity characteristics can reflect the geological environmental background that affects the landslide development in different historical periods.

Landslide susceptibility assessment based on the SOM-I-SVM model

Shuiwen dizhi gongcheng dizhi, 2023
When using machine learning models for landslide susceptibility evaluation, the non-landslide sample points are usually selected randomly outside the landslide influence area, leading to a certain error.

New geochronological constraints on Late Pleistocene glaciation in the southern Cadí Massif, SE Pyrenees

Journal of Quaternary Science, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The Cadí Massif (42°17′09″ N, 1°38′11″ E; 2649 m a.s.l.) in the southeastern Pyrenees preserves clear evidence of Late Pleistocene glaciation, although previous research has focused almost exclusively on its northern slope. By contrast, the southern slope has remained largely unexplored.

A Data-Driven Model on Google Earth Engine for Landslide Susceptibility Assessment in the Hengduan Mountains, the Qinghai–Tibetan Plateau

Remote Sensing, 2022
Amplifying landslide hazards in the backdrop of warming climate and intensifying human activities calls for an integrated framework for accurately evaluating landslide susceptibility at fine spatiotemporal resolutions, which is critical for the ...

A talus rock glacier in Nantlle Valley, North Wales

Journal of Quaternary Science, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Landforms comprising mixtures of fine and coarse sediment and deposited during late glacial times are ubiquitous in the British mountains. In many cases, their interpretation has often proved contentious; as a result, the non‐generic term discrete debris accumulations (DDA) has been used to describe them and, over the last 50 years, some have ...
