Combined rock slope stability and shallow landslide susceptibility assessment of the Jasmund cliff area (Rügen Island, Germany) [PDF]
Natural Hazards and Earth System Sciences, 2009 In this contribution we evaluated both the structurally-controlled failure susceptibility of the fractured Cretaceous chalk rocks and the topographically-controlled shallow landslide susceptibility of the overlying glacial sediments for the Jasmund cliff

Scenario modelling of basin-scale, shallow landslide sediment yield, Valsassina, Italian Southern Alps [PDF]
Natural Hazards and Earth System Sciences, 2005 The SHETRAN model for determining the sediment yield arising from shallow landsliding at the scale of a river catchment was applied to the 180-km2 Valsassina basin in the Italian Southern Alps, with the aim of demonstrating that the model can simulate ...

GeoHazards, 2023 Shallow landslides are one of the most dangerous gravitational phenomena. They are responsible for more than 50% of causalities due to landslides in northwestern Italy in the last century.

Wind control of storm‐triggered shallow landslides [PDF]
Geophysical Research Letters, 2007 Heavy rainstorms are a major control of shallow landsliding in mountainous areas. The influence of three‐dimensional (3‐D) variability of precipitation is analyzed by coupling a fine‐resolution atmospheric model (RAMS) with a fine‐resolution topographic model (DEM) to represent the 3‐D precipitation flux generating the catastrophic flood that occurred ...

Cost-sensitive rainfall thresholds for shallow landslides [PDF]
Landslides, 2021 AbstractThe risk management of rainfall-induced landslides requires reliable rainfall thresholds to issue early warning alerts. The practical application of these thresholds often leads to misclassifications, either false negative or false positive, which induce costs for the society. Since missed-alarm (false negative) and false-alarm (false positive)

Ongoing Landslide Deformation in Thawing Permafrost
Geophysical Research Letters, 2021 Thawing permafrost influences landslide initiation, but observation of landslide development in thawing permafrost is limited. To evaluate the impact of landslide age, morphology, and permafrost conditions, we quantified topographic deformation of three ...

FAIR shallow landslide hazard mapping
, 2023 A single triggering event such as strong precipitation, may result in swarms of shallow landslides that cumulatively pose significant risks to population, infrastructure and the environment. There is large scientific and societal interest in hazard maps that display the susceptibility to shallow landslide occurrence while accounting for spatio-temporal

Biotic controls on shallow translational landslides [PDF]
Earth Surface Processes and Landforms, 2012 ABSTRACTIn undisturbed tropical montane rainforests massive organic layers accommodate the majority of roots and only a small fraction of roots penetrate the mineral soil. We investigated the contribution of vegetation to slope stability in such environments by modifying a standard model for slope stability to include an organic layer with distinct ...

Deep learning forecast of rainfall-induced shallow landslides
Nature Communications, 2023 AbstractRainfall triggered landslides occur in all mountain ranges posing threats to people and the environment. Given the projected climate changes, the risk posed by landslides is expected to increase, and the ability to anticipate their occurrence is key for effective risk reduction.
