Biotic controls on shallow translational landslides [PDF]
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 ...

Mass-Movement Processes: Shallow Landslides [PDF]
Landslides are deposits of rock, debris, and earth that have moved down a slope by gravity. The five major types of landslides based on mechanisms are falls, topples, slides, spreads, and flows. This article describes shallow slides, which are one of the most common types of landslides in all the world's climate zones and are characterized by a reduced

Accelerating Effect of Vegetation on the Instability of Rainfall-Induced Shallow Landslides
Rainfall-induced shallow landslides are widespread throughout the world, and vegetation is frequently utilized to control them. However, in recent years, shallow landslides have continued to frequently occur during the rainy season on the vegetated ...
