After obtaining these data, the potential of sub-aerial landslide-induced wave characteristics such as wave height, wave run-up on the opposite slope and wave velocity were calculated using existing empirical relationships. Based on the obtained wave properties, a potential damage assessment was ...
A hydroclimatic threshold for landslide initiation on the North Shore Mountains of Vancouver, British Columbia Landslides triggered by rainfall are the cause of thousands of deaths worldwide every year. One possible approach to limit the socioeconomic consequences o... JH Weatherly - 《Geomorphology》...
In Italy, rainfall is the primary trigger of landslides that frequently cause fatalities and large economic damage. Using a variety of information sources, we have compiled a catalogue listing 753 rainfall events that have resulted in landslides in Italy. For each event in the catalogue, the exact...
In large rockslides, fractures of non-tectonic origin can be associated with other features inducing rock mass damage such as folding, faulting, and rock mass disintegration. Joint orientation measurements (N = 1,204) carried out on the 1963 Vajont landslide demonstrate the presence of gravity-...
Reactivated landslideKinematic evolutionAbstractMore than 5000 landslides or potential landslides have been induced in the Three Gorges Reservoir (TGR) region since the impoundment in 2003, which have caused great damage and remain a huge threat to the dam and people living in...
During the 4-year period post-fire, a series of shallow landslides triggered by rainfall occurred in fire-affected areas mainly covered by Neogene sediments (marls and sandstones), causing severe economic damage. Relationships between observed landslide events and associated rainfalls were established in...

The landslide near Stadtschlaining (Austria) represents a key study site to elucidate the impacts of pelitic sediment composition, weathering regime, alteration patterns and hydrochemistry on recurrent damage progression in the local infrastructure. Based on field work, soil-mechanical logging (Atterberg ...
