Landslides and slope processes constitute one of the most frequent natural hazards in valleys near major rivers and mountainous regions. The surface layer, characterized by its relatively loose composition, is prone to sliding due to a combination of distinct natural and human-related factors. Specific sections along the right bank of the Danube Ri...
Indicators and landslide risk maps for France at national scale are computed and presented. Two quantitative approaches are employed, and the results, including the landslide hazard map and landslide risk maps generated from composite indicators for built-up areas and roads, are examined. These documents are intended to be used in the national stra...

To create the landslide activity map, we implemented and tested the procedure to fully utilise the 6-day repeatability of the Sentinel-1 constellation in three pilot areas in Slovenia for the observation period from 2017 to 2021. The interferometric processing of the Sentinel-1 images was carried out with ENVI SARScape, while the interpretation of ...

Seismic resonance and surface displacement measurements can be implemented in tandem to improve landslide characterization and progressive failure monitoring. Crack aperture data are frequently used in rock slope stability monitoring and often exhibit recognizable trends prior to failure, such as accelerated crack opening. Alternatively, ambient re...

This review paper provides an overview of recent research on landslide susceptibility. Landslides are a natural phenomenon that can cause significant damage to infrastructure and endanger human lives. The paper presents an in-depth analysis of the factors that contribute to landslide susceptibility, including geological, hydrological and anthropoge...

Coastal areas are characterized by high levels of urbanization and also the most active and highly sensitive to geological activities. Due to the impact of global climate change, landslides occur frequently in coastal areas, which have significantly impacted the sustainable socio-economic development of the region. Therefore, studying the spatial d...
The objective of this article was to establish mechanisms to raise awareness among the population living in risk areas about possible landslides, based on cartographic analysis shown later with virtual reality techniques, specifying that various geomorphological events in Mexico City (CDMX) and in certain parts of the Mexican Republic are becoming ...
I slänter med siltiga jordar i anslutning till Trafikverkets befintliga vägar och järnvägar i Västernorrlands län, har kryprörelser identifierats. Det finns ett behov av att kunna identifiera områden med risk för sådana kryprörelser, få en bättre förståelse för dessa mekanismer och under vilka förutsättningar dessa kan utvecklas till skred, vilket ...
Virtual reality is a technological development that, among others, has revolutionized Earth sciences. Its advantages include an opportunity to examine places otherwise difficult or impossible to access and it may also become an important component of education, fostering a better understanding of processes and landforms, geohazard awareness, and an...
