Landslides are widespread geological features in Italy’s Northern Apennines, with slow-moving earthflows among the most common types. They develop in fine-grained rocks and are subject to periodic rainfall-induced reactivations alternating to phases of ...

Initial insights from a global database of rainfall-induced landslide inventories: the weak influence of slope and strong influence of total storm rainfall [PDF]
Rainfall-induced landslides are a common and significant source of damages and fatalities worldwide. Still, we have little understanding of the quantity and properties of landsliding that can be expected for a given storm and a given landscape, mostly

Rainfall events with shallow landslides in the Entella catchment, Liguria, northern Italy [PDF]
In recent decades, the Entella River basin, in the Liguria Apennines, northern Italy, was hit by numerous intense rainfall events that triggered shallow landslides and earth flows, causing casualties and extensive damage.

SANF: National warning system for rainfall-induced landslides in Italy
In Italy, rainfall-induced slope failures occur every year, claiming lives and causing severe economic damage. We have designed and implemented a landslide warning system, named SANF (an acronym for national early warning system for rainfall-induced ...

Capturing the footprints of ground motion in the spatial distribution of rainfall-induced landslides
The coupled effect of earthquakes and rainfall is rarely investigated in landslide susceptibility assessments although it could be crucial to predict landslide occurrences. This is even more critical in the context of early warning systems and especially

Due to similar engineering and hydrogeological conditions, landslides in the same area often occur in groups under highly correlated rainfall. As a result, predicting shallow landslide instability disasters at the regional scale is of great significance ...
