A model for triggering mechanisms of shallow landslides [PDF]

open access: yesNatural 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 ...

Extreme precipitation on dry ground in western Norway – characteristics of induced landslides call for adaptation of the Norwegian practice in landuse planning [PDF]

open access: yesE3S Web of Conferences, 2023
Following a particularly dry summer, a torrential rain event struck Western Norway on Tuesday 30 July 2019. The resulting floods and shallow landslides caused one fatality and severe damages to public and private infrastructure in the former Jølster ...

Landslides on Ceres: Diversity and Geologic Context. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
Landslides are among the most widespread geologic features on Ceres. Using data from Dawn's Framing Camera, landslides were previously classified based upon geomorphologic characteristics into one of three archetypal categories, Type 1(T1), Type 2 (T2 ...

Landslide Inventory along a National Highway Corridor in the Hissar-Allay Mountains, Central Tajikistan

open access: yesGeoHazards, 2021
An increasing amount of landslides leading to significant human and economic consequences is a primary concern for the government of Tajikistan and local authorities. Based on the Committee on Emergency Situations data, from 1996 to 2018, there were 3460

Environmental Impact of Silicic Magmatism in Large Igneous Province Events

open access: yesGeophysical 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.

Shallow-landslide stability evaluation in loess areas according to the Revised Infinite Slope Model: a case study of the 7.25 Tianshui sliding-flow landslide events of 2013 in the southwest of the Loess Plateau, China [PDF]

open access: yesNatural Hazards and Earth System Sciences
The occurrence of shallow loess landslides induced by prolonged heavy rainfall is prevalent in loess-dominated regions, often leading to property damage, human casualties, and sediment pollution.

Mapping Landslide Prediction through a GIS-Based Model: A Case Study in a Catchment in Southern Italy

open access: yesGeosciences, 2020
Shallow landslides are an increasing concern in Italy and worldwide because of the frequent association with vegetation management. As vegetation cover plays a fundamental role in slope stability, we developed a GIS-based model to evaluate the influence ...

Shallow landslide's stochastic risk modelling based on the precipitation event of August 2005 in Switzerland: results and implications [PDF]

open access: yesNatural Hazards and Earth System Sciences, 2013
Due to their relatively unpredictable characteristics, shallow landslides represent a risk for human infrastructures. Multiple shallow landslides can be triggered by widespread intense precipitation events.
