Resolving a debate over social freedom

open access: yesThe Southern Journal of Philosophy, EarlyView.
Abstract When I am unable to drive due to a road blockade, there seems to be a morally relevant difference between a case in which the road is blocked by workers and a case in which the road is blocked by a landslide. Many political philosophers tried to capture this pretheoretical judgment at a more abstract level through the formulation of a concept ...

Evaluation of landslide susceptibility mapping techniques using lidar-derived conditioning factors (Oregon case study)

open access: yesGeomatics, Natural Hazards & Risk, 2016
Landslides are a significant geohazard, which frequently result in significant human, infrastructure, and economic losses. Landslide susceptibility mapping using GIS and remote sensing can help communities prepare for these damaging events.

Upscaling and downscaling landslide susceptibility maps

open access: yes, 2023
Although without official standardization, landslide susceptibility models (LSM) have entered preliminary stages of design and planning practice worldwide. As design and planning itself undergoes from lower to higher level of detail, different scales of LSM apply. Nevertheless, the LSMs are mainly produced in regional scales, whereas national and local

A multi-scale regional landslide susceptibility assessment approach: the SUFRA_SICILIA (SUscettibilit\ue0 da FRAna in Sicilia) project [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
The SUFRA project is based on a three level susceptibility mapping. According to the availability of more detailed data, the three scale for susceptibility mapping are increased respect to the ones suggested by the TIER group to 1:100,000, 1:50,000 and 1:

Representing landslides as polygon (areal) or points? How different data types influence the accuracy of landslide susceptibility maps [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
In the literatures, discussions on the accuracy of different models for landslide analysis have been discussed widely. However, to date, arguments on the type of input data (landslides in the form of point or polygon) and how they affect the accuracy of ...

Landslide susceptibility evaluation in Fengjie County based on slope units extracted using the MIA-HSU method

open access: yesZhongguo dizhi zaihai yu fangzhi xuebao
Grid units have limitations in accurately delineating the morphology and boundaries of slopes, and when used as mapping units in landslide susceptibility evaluation, they cannot accurately describe the landslide susceptibility of natural slopes ...

Shallow landsliding and catchment connectivity within the Houpoto Forest, New Zealand. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Active landslides and their contribution to catchment connectivity have been investigated within the Houpoto Forest, North Island, New Zealand. The aim was to quantify the proportion of buffered versus coupled landslides and explore how specific physical

Bedding control on landslides: A methodological approach for computer-aided mapping analysis [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
Litho-structural control on the spatial and temporal evolution of landslides is one of the major typical aspects on slopes constituted of structurally complex sequences. Mainly focused on instabilities of the earth flow type, a semi-quantitative analysis

Developing a simple soil erosion model including spatial variability in headwater catchments

open access: yesAgrosystems, Geosciences &Environment, Volume 9, Issue 2, June 2026.
Abstract Hillslopes and stream channels are tightly linked in headwater catchments, where soil erosion on slopes is transported to channels depending on topography, soil properties, and ground cover conditions. Because these environments are highly spatially variable, geographic information system (GIS)‐based modeling approaches are effective for ...
