Low‐Intensity Precipitation Dominates Peninsular Spain (1961–2022)

International Journal of Climatology, EarlyView.
Spatial analysis across Spain shows a shift in precipitation regimes (1961–2022) toward more frequent low‐intensity precipitation and reduced high‐intensity events, with localised increases in heavy precipitation along some coastal areas. This redistribution—captured through changes in precipitation frequency (RF) and volumetric contribution (RC ...

The complementary distribution of coseismic and slow-moving landslides along the transition between the Qinghai-Xizang plateau and Sichuan basin

Geodesy and Geodynamics
Landslides accompanying earthquakes are essential in landscape evolution along active fault zones. However, most studies focus on the rapid, catastrophic coseismic landslides with surface scars; the role of slow-moving landslides and their relation with ...

Landslides

, 2019
An accurate modelling of rockfall runout continues to be a demanding challenge within the geotechnical and hazards engineering community. Most existing rockfall dynamic programs apply effective restitution coefficients to model the energy dissipation during the rock-ground interaction.

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 ...

Spatiotemporal Evolution of Regional Heavy Rainfall Events in Guangdong, South China: Intensification and Expansion Since the Early 1990s

International Journal of Climatology, EarlyView.
Regional heavy rainfall events (RHREs) in Guangdong, South China, during 1961–2025 are reassessed using an improved strength index that integrates rainfall intensity, spatial extent and duration. Results reveal a post‐1991 shift towards more frequent and spatially extensive strong and extreme events, with June showing the most pronounced ...

Modelling shallow landslides: the importance of hydrological controls and lateral reinforcement [PDF]

, 2008
Shallow landslides are important as geomorphic agents of erosion, sources of catchment sediment and potential hazards to life and infrastructure. The importance of these mass movements is difficult to define using solely field- based approaches because ...

Compound Meteorological and Hydrological Hot‐Dry and Hot‐Wet Extremes Over Global Land Areas: Spatiotemporal Changes, Attribution, and Drivers

International Journal of Climatology, EarlyView.
The changes in joint return period of compound meteorological hot‐dry (CMHHE) and hot‐wet (CMHWE) and compound hydrological hot‐dry (CHHDE) and hot‐wet (CHHWE) extremes were attributed to changes in associated univariate extremes and their dependence.

Groundwater recharge in a steep mountain slope and its implications for slope stability: Åknes rockslide (Norway)

Frontiers in Earth Science
The Åknes rockslide lies in a steep mountain slope, dipping on average 30 to 35° towards Sunnylv Fjord, Western Norway. As part of the early-warning system implemented for this rockslide, hydraulic heads have been continuously monitored since 2007.

Geochronological reconstruction of the Lateglacial deglaciation in the Arve Valley (Northern French Alps)

Journal of Quaternary Science, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The timing and spatial patterns of glaciers retreat in the Northern French Alps during the Lateglacial (19.0–11.7 ka) remain debated, reflecting discrepancies among available chronological data sets. The complex interactions between major glaciers, such as the Rhône and Arve glaciers to the north and the Isère glacier to the south, represent a

Topographic location and connectivity to channel of earthquake- and rainfall-induced landslides in Loess Plateau area

Scientific Reports
The position of landslides on a slope plays a crucial role in determining landslide susceptibility and the likelihood of landslide debris interacting with the fluvial system.
