Using the root spread information of pioneer plants to quantify their mitigation potential against shallow landslides and erosion in temperate humid climates [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
The aim of this paper was to quantify the mitigation potential of pioneer herbs against shallow landslidesand erosion in temperate humid climates and to identify key plant information to aid species selectionfor slope stabilisation. The objectives ranged

What does landslide triggering rainfall mean? [PDF]

open access: yesE3S Web of Conferences, 2023
Landslide-triggering rainfall thresholds are often subject to both false negatives (landslides where none are expected) and false positives (no landslides despite thresholds being exceeded).

Application of a 3D deterministic model for predicting shallow loess landslide stability

open access: yes工程科学学报, 2018
In the loess plateau, shallow loess landslides are especially widespread and frequent geological disasters, causing serious casualties as well as huge property damage.

Semi-automatic mapping of shallow landslides using free Sentinel-2 images and Google Earth Engine [PDF]

open access: yesNatural Hazards and Earth System Sciences, 2023
The global availability of Sentinel-2 data and the widespread coverage of cost-free and high-resolution images nowadays give opportunities to map, at a low cost, shallow landslides triggered by extreme events (e.g. rainfall, earthquakes).

Critical rainfall conditions for the initiation of torrential flows: results from the Rebaixader catchment (Central Pyrenees) [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Torrential flows like debris flows or debris floods are fast movements formed by a mix of water and different amounts of unsorted solid material. They generally occur in steep torrents and pose high risk in mountainous areas.

Ongoing Landslide Deformation in Thawing Permafrost

open access: yesGeophysical 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 ...

Short Term Weather Forecasting for Shallow Landslide Prediction [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
The paper describes the activities developed within the work package 4.1 of the UE/FP7 SAFELAND Project. The first scope of this research activity is to define and to implement a warning system for shallow landslide prediction, at large and slope scale, based on the forecast precipitation.

Shallow Landslides and Rockfalls Velocity Assessment at Regional Scale: A Methodology Based on a Morphometric Approach

open access: yesGeosciences, 2022
Velocity is one of the most important parameters to evaluate the damaging potential of a mass movement, but its assessment, especially for extremely rapid landslides, is a complex task.

Improving predictive power of physically based rainfall-induced shallow landslide models: a probabilistic approach

open access: yes, 2014
Distributed models to forecast the spatial and temporal occurrence of rainfall-induced shallow landslides are based on deterministic laws. These models extend spatially the static stability models adopted in geotechnical engineering, and adopt an ...
