Definition and performance of a threshold-based regional early warning model for rainfall-induced landslides

open access: yesLandslides, 2017
A process chain for the definition and the performance assessment of an operational regional warning model for rainfall-induced landslides, based on rainfall thresholds, is proposed and tested in a landslide-prone area in the Campania region, southern ...

Study of rainfall-induced landslide: a review

open access: yesIOP Conference Series: Earth and Environmental Science, 2018
Rainfall-induced landslides pose a substantial risk to people and infrastructure. For this reason, there have been numerous studies to understand the landslide mechanism. Most of them were performed on the numerical analysis and laboratory experiment.

Selected Physical and Geotechnical Properties of Loess in Wairarapa Valley, New Zealand

open access: yesNew Zealand Journal of Geology and Geophysics, Volume 69, Issue 4, December 2026.
Loess up to 10 m thick covers marine terraces, old river aggradation terraces, and gentle hill country slopes in Wairarapa, New Zealand. In the drier eastern and southern parts of Wairarapa, the loess is subject to dry summer and autumn and wet winter and spring in most years.

Rising Waters, Shifting Finances: Rural Household Decisions Under Flood Risk

open access: yesJournal of Flood Risk Management, Volume 19, Issue 4, December 2026.
ABSTRACT This study examines how flood exposure and credit‐market reform jointly shape household repayment behavior in flood‐prone rural areas. Using monthly household loan records from Jiayu County, Hubei Province, China, during the 2020 flood season, we analyze first‐time overdue behavior and proactive repayment toward overdue debt.

Adaptive Prototype‐Based Few‐Shot Segmentation for Debris Flow Early Warning

open access: yesJournal of Flood Risk Management, Volume 19, Issue 4, December 2026.
From single‐parameter monitoring to a cross‐modal few‐shot visual paradigm for debris flow early warning. Conventional rainfall‐gauge and mud‐level monitoring is data‐sparse, delayed in response, and spatially limited. The proposed framework instead fuses a support set, a query image, and a textual target category through ResNet‐50 and CLIP encoders ...

Sustainable and Seismically Resilient Confined Masonry: Global Progress in Research and Design Practice

open access: yesEarthquake Spectra, Volume 42, Issue 4, November 2026.
Modern confined masonry (CM) construction consists of masonry walls confined by reinforced concrete (RC) tie‐columns and tie‐beams. When built correctly, CM buildings have shown good performance in earthquake's shaking. Even though CM construction has been practised for almost a century in some Latin American countries, its use and standardisation are ...
