Characteristics and causes of natural and human-induced landslides in a tropical mountainous region: the rift flank west of Lake Kivu (Democratic Republic of the Congo) [PDF]

open access: yesNatural Hazards and Earth System Sciences, 2023
Tropical mountainous regions are often identified as landslide hotspots with growing population pressure. Anthropogenic factors are assumed to play a role in the occurrence of landslides in these densely populated regions, yet the relative importance of ...

Landslides on Ceres: Diversity and Geologic Context. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
Landslides are among the most widespread geologic features on Ceres. Using data from Dawn's Framing Camera, landslides were previously classified based upon geomorphologic characteristics into one of three archetypal categories, Type 1(T1), Type 2 (T2 ...

Empirical relationships of the landslides in the Chinese Loess Plateau and affect factors analysis

open access: yesGeomatics, Natural Hazards & Risk, 2022
The CLP (Chinese Loess Plateau) is one of the most densely distributed landslides areas. The empirical relationships of the landslides in the CLP remain unclear, and its influencing factors are controversial.

Towards the optimal Pixel size of dem for automatic mapping of landslide areas [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Determining appropriate spatial resolution of digital elevation model (DEM) is a key step for effective landslide analysis based on remote sensing data. Several studies demonstrated that choosing the finest DEM resolution is not always the best solution.
