Rainfall Thresholds for Possible Landslide Occurrence in Italy

open access: yesGeomorphology, 2017
The large physiographic variability and the abundance of landslide and rainfall data make Italy an ideal site to investigate variations in the rainfall conditions that can result in rainfall-induced landslides. We used landslide information obtained from

Probabilistic Thresholds for Landslides Warning by Integrating Soil Moisture Conditions With Rainfall Thresholds [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Hydrology, 2019
Various methods have been proposed to define the rainfall thresholds for the landslide prediction. Once the threshold is determined, it remains the same regardless of the antecedent soil moisture conditions.

Advances in Rainfall Thresholds for Landslide Triggering in Italy

2020
We reviewed the Italian scientific literature published in the period 2008-2018 on the topic of rainfall thresholds for the landslide triggering, with the aim of analyzing the most significant advances and the main open issues. In the international literature, Italy occupies a relevant position from both a quantitative and a qualitative viewpoint: 65 ...

Climatological Thresholds of Daily Rainfall

Journal of Hydrologic Engineering, 2001
This technical note summarizes the results from daily rainfall data analysis with relation to annual rainfall amounts. By investigating the behavior of correlation coefficients between the annual rainfall amounts and the within-the-year cumulative frequency distribution functions of wet days with various threshold rainfall depths, it was found that (1)

Rainfall Threshold of Rainfall-Induced Landslides Based on Laboratory Test

Applied Mechanics and Materials, 2013
A landslide model test under the artificial rainfall was built according to the rainfll-induced landslide in Fujian mountainous area. The rainfall intensity, the slope types (mainly on vegetation coverage) and the grade of side slope were the main factors in the test.

Uncertainty in debris flow rainfall thresholds

2021
<p>Rainfall is the most significant factor for debris flows triggering. Water is needed to saturate the soil, initiate the sediment motion (regardless of the mobilization mechanism) and transform the solid debris into a fluid mass that can move rapidly downslope.

Definition of Rainfall Thresholds Triggering Landslides in Slovenia

2017
In this paper the definition of rainfall thresholds for rainfall-induced landslides in Slovenia is presented. The thresholds have been calculated by collecting approximately 900 landslide data and the relative rainfall amounts, which have been collected from 41 rain gauges all over the country. The thresholds have been defined by the use of an existing

On the Threshold Method for Rainfall Estimation: Choosing the Optimal Threshold Level

Journal of the American Statistical Association, 1991
Abstract Real data experiments show that, for large areas, the area average rain rate and the fraction of the area covered by rain rate above a fixed threshold are highly correlated. For the right choice of the threshold level the correlation can easily exceed 95% and may even reach 99%.

Calibration and Validation of Rainfall Thresholds for Shallow Landslide Forecasting in Sicily, Southern Italy

open access: yesGeomorphology, 2015
Empirical rainfall thresholds are tools to forecast the possible occurrence of rainfall-induced shallow landslides. Accurate prediction of landslide occurrence requires reliable thresholds, which need to be properly validated before their use in ...
