Rainfall thresholds for the possible occurrence of landslides in Italy [PDF]
Natural Hazards and Earth System Sciences, 2010 In Italy, rainfall is the primary trigger of landslides that frequently cause fatalities and large economic damage. Using a variety of information sources, we have compiled a catalogue listing 753 rainfall events that have resulted in landslides in Italy.

Catalogue of Rainfall Events with Shallow Landslides and New Rainfall Thresholds in Italy
, 2015 In Italy, rainfall-induced shallow landslides are frequent and harmful phenomena. The prediction of their occurrence is of social significance for civil protection purposes. For the operational prediction of rainfall-induced shallow landslides empirical rainfall thresholds based on the statistical analysis of past rainfall conditions that triggered ...

A tool for the automatic calculation of rainfall thresholds for landslide occurrence
Environmental Modelling & Software, 2018 Empirical rainfall thresholds are commonly used to forecast landslide occurrence in wide areas. Thresholds are affected by several uncertainties related to the rainfall and the landslide information accuracy, the reconstruction of the rainfall responsible for the failure, and the method to calculate the thresholds. This limits the use of the thresholds

Rainfall thresholds derivation for warning pluvial flooding risk in urbanised areas [PDF]
E3S Web of Conferences, 2016 Aim of this work is the development of an operational tool for pluvial flooding warning in an urban area based on off-line rainfall thresholds derived by coupling a rainfall–runoff modelling and a hydraulic routing. The critical conditions considered for

A review of rainfall thresholds for the initiation of landslides.
, 2006 Rainfall is a recognized trigger of landslides in different physiographic and climatic regions world wide. Various investigators have attempted to determine the amount of precipitation needed to trigger slope failures, and to establish rainfall thresholds for the initiation of landslides. Determining the amount of rainfall needed to trigger a landslide

Optimising rainfall characteristics for determining landslide thresholds. [PDF]
Nat Hazards (Dordr)Abstract This work contributes a new framework for establishing data-driven rainfall thresholds in high-risk, data-limited contexts. Rainfall thresholds are commonly used to characterise the precipitation needed to trigger landslides in a region.

Reanalysis of Soil Moisture Used for Rainfall Thresholds for Rainfall-Induced Landslides: The Italian Case Study [PDF]
Water, 2021 Landslides are one of the most frequent natural disasters that can endanger human lives and property. Therefore, prediction of landslides is essential to reduce economic damage and save human lives. Numerous methods have been developed for the prediction of landslides triggering, ranging from simple methods that include empirical rainfall thresholds ...
