<p>Landslide forecasting and early warning has a long tradition in landslide research and is primarily carried out based on empirical and statistical approaches, e.g., landslide triggering rainfall thresholds. In the last decade, flood forecasting started ...

<p>In the framework of landslide risk reduction, predicting the time of occurrence of a slope failure is a goal of major importance. The task is far from simple, since it is practically impossible to account for the large number of controlling variables and ...

We define landslide Early Warning Systems and present practical guidelines to assist end-users with limited experience in the design of landslide Early Warning Systems (EWSs). In particular, two flow chart-based tools coming from the results of the SafeLand ...

We explore two landslide triggering mechanisms that are associated with time-dependent, cyclic loading of the sliding interface. The first is shear strength degradation due to seismic shaking leading to velocity weakening of the sliding interface. We show ...

Given that clay-rich landslides may become mobilized, leading to rapid mass movements (earthflows and debris flows), they pose critical problems in risk management worldwide. The most widely proposed mechanism leading to such flow-like movements is the increase ...

<p>In this paper preliminary results of the Cat-1 project &rdquo;Landslides forecasting analysis by displacement time series derived from Satellite and Terrestrial InSAR data&rdquo; are presented. The project focuses on landslide forecasting analysis, based ...

<p>A report for Knowledge guided empirical prediction of landslide hazard</p>

A total of 4200 landslides have been identified in the Three Gorges Reservoir area. It is planned that a total of 3200 landslides (i.e., 75% of the total number of landslides) will be monitored. Since 2003, the authors have carried out a geo-hazard real-time ...

<p>This Publication presents a recommended standard of good practice for the application of prescriptive measures as improvement works on existing man-made slopes and retaining walls in Hong Kong. The scope of application covers a range of prescriptive measures ...

CSIO, Chandigarh has designed and developed an instrument network around standard geotechnical and geophysical sensors and advanced associated electronics. Network was installed in 2006 for continuous instrumental monitoring of the site at Mansa Devi near ...
