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 ...

Modelling of shallow landslides with machine learning algorithms

open access: yesGeoscience 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]

open access: yesRemote 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

Overall analysis of protective effects of forest on shallow landslides triggered by storm Vaia in Agordino (Italy)

open access: yes, 2023
Shallow landslides are one of the most frequent gravitative natural hazards in the Alpine region that could affect human infrastructures. Forests can play a direct protective function, preventing the triggering of such events thanks to the role they play

Wind control of storm‐triggered shallow landslides [PDF]

open access: yesGeophysical 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 ...

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

Shallow landslides susceptibility assessment in different environments [PDF]

open access: yesGeomatics, Natural Hazards and Risk, 2016
The spatial distribution of shallow landslides is strongly influenced by different climatic conditions and environmental settings. This makes difficult the implementation of an exhaustive monitoring technique for correctly assessing the landslide susceptibility in different environmental contexts.

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.

Hazard Maps of Shallow Landslides Associated to Infiltration Processes in the Sapuyes River Basin

open access: yesIngeniería e Investigación, 2021
Hazard mapping of shallow landslides associated with infiltration processes at a regional scale was carried out by means of the spatial and temporal distribution of safety factor and its classification, within hazard level ranges, into cells that ...

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.
