A model for triggering mechanisms of shallow landslides [PDF]
Natural Hazards and Earth System Sciences, 2008 Abstract. Rainfall-induced shallow landslides, also called "soil slips", are becoming ever more frequent all over the world and are receiving a rising interest in consequence of the heavy damage they produce. At the University of Parma, a simplified physically based model has been recently set up for the evaluation of the safety factor of slopes which ...

Tree-roots control of shallow landslides [PDF]
Earth Surface Dynamics, 2017 Abstract. Tree roots have long been recognized to increase slope stability by reinforcing the strength of soils. Slope stability models include the effects of roots by adding an apparent cohesion to the soil to simulate root strength. No model includes the combined effects of root distribution heterogeneity, stress-strain behavior of root reinforcement,

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 ...

Modelling of shallow landslides with machine learning algorithms
Geoscience Frontiers, 2021 Abstract This paper introduces three machine learning (ML) algorithms, the ‘ensemble’ Random Forest (RF), the ‘ensemble’ Gradient Boosted Regression Tree (GBRT) and the MultiLayer Perceptron neural network (MLP) and applies them to the spatial modelling of shallow landslides near Kvam in Norway.

Guidance Index for Shallow Landslide Hazard Analysis [PDF]
Remote Sensing, 2016 Rainfall-induced shallow landslides are one of the most frequent hazards on slanted terrains. Intense storms with high-intensity and long-duration rainfall have high potential to trigger rapidly moving soil masses due to changes in pore water pressure and seepage forces. Nevertheless, regardless of the intensity and/or duration of the rainfall, shallow

Environmental Impact of Silicic Magmatism in Large Igneous Province Events
Geophysical Monograph Series, Page 133-151., 2021 Exploring the links between Large Igneous Provinces and dramatic environmental impact
An emerging consensus suggests that Large Igneous Provinces (LIPs) and Silicic LIPs (SLIPs) are a significant driver of dramatic global environmental and biological changes, including mass extinctions.

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 ...

Journal of Hydroinformatics, 2023 This study aims to model a probabilistic-based reliability assessment of the gridded rainfall thresholds for shallow landslide occurrence (RA_GRTE_LS) to quantify the effect of the uncertainty of rainfall in time and space on the rainfall thresholds ...
