Abstract:
Assessment of landslide hazard across mountains is imperative for public safety. Pre- and post-earthquake landslide mapping envisage that landslides show significant size changes during earthquake activity. One of the purposes of earthquake-induced landslide investigation is to determine the landslide state and geometry and draw conclusions on their mobility. This study was based on remote sensing data that covered 72 years, and focused on the west slopes of the Skolis Mountains, in the northwest Peloponnese. On 8 June 2008, during the strong Movri Mountain earthquake (Mw = 6.4), we mapped the

Information about the long-term spatiotemporal evolution of landslides can improve the understanding of landslides. However, since landslide deformation characteristics differ it is difficult to monitor the entire movement of a landslide using a single method. The Interferometric Synthetic Aperture Radar (InSAR) and pixel offset tracking (POT) method can complement each other when monitoring deformation at different landslide stages. Therefore, the InSAR and improved POT method were adapted to study the pre- and post-failure surface deformation characteristics of the Gaojiawan landslide to dee

Abstract:
Landslides are among the many natural disasters causing massive destructions and loss of lives across the globe. India has a high degree of vulnerability towards the occurrence of Landslides. Landslides and avalanches are among the major hydro-geological hazards that affect large parts of India. Around 15% of the country’s region is prone to landslides. The Himalayas of Northwest and Northeast India and the Western Ghats are two regions of high vulnerability. Some major recent incidents are Kerala (2018), Himachal Pradesh (2018), Uttarakhand (2018), Tamenglong-Manipur (2018), and Kalikhola, Ma

Abstract:
Landslides are often a hazard to high-pressure gas transmission pipelines operating in hilly and mountainous terrain. Typical mitigation options include pipeline rerouting or removing the landslide from the pipeline, if possible. When rerouting or hazard removal is not a viable option due to terrain conditions or the size of the landslide loading the pipeline, directional bores can be used to place the pipeline beneath the active portion of the slope failure. As part of our study of the geotechnical viability of mitigation options for a pipeline impacted by coastal landslides, rerouting and la

Abstract:
There have been over 1,500 recorded landslide-related fatalities in New Zealand (more than from earthquakes and tsunami combined) since 1760. No single organisation in New Zealand has overall responsibility for landslides. As a result, landslide data has been stored in multiple discrete locations, often in widely varying formats, with no ability to compile the data to get an overall understanding of the distribution of landslide risk across the country. The New Zealand Landslides Database enables multiple organisations including the public to deposit factual information about every landslide i

Abstract:
Landslides are environmental processes that lead to natural disasters or technical failures, the effects of which usually threaten the life, health and property of people. In the classification of natural disasters and hazards that occur in the world, landslides are in fifth place, both in the number of casualties and material losses. Continuous surveillance and risk assessment is a very important issue in preventing the effects of natural disasters. The paper presents the causes of landslides, the classification of landslides, several examples of landslides and damage caused by landslides. He

Abstract:
The area of Hrvatsko Zagorje (i.e. Croatian upland) is the most prone to landslides in the Republic of Croatia, with landslides occurring practically every day, caused either by natural or anthropogenic factors. Many of these landslides are activated along the network of state and local roads that pass through numerous cuttings mostly without any or with inadequate slope stabilization measures. Implementation of investigation works, design and rehabilitation works are all accompanied by numerous challenges. Designing effective landslide remediation measures requires a thorough understanding of

During 2020 and 2021, some landslides that had been activated in Goražde city threatened to have an impact on private houses and infrastructure facilities. In order to solve this problem efficiently and as soon as possible, it was necessary to determine the factors on site and to provide advice for urgent remediation measures, i.e. the activities that should be undertaken in order to stabilize the slopes permanently. This paper will briefly present three activated slopes, their statuses and the advice for the activities on stabilisation. The most difficult task was to determine the trigger of

Landslides related to heavy rainfall can cause extensive damage to natural gas transmission pipelines. We have developed and implemented a geographic information system (GIS) model that evaluates near real-time precipitation-induced landslide susceptibility. This model incorporates state-wide precipitation data and geologically-based landslide classifications to produce rapid landslide risk evaluation for Pacific Gas &amp; Electric Company’s (PG&amp;E) gas transmission system during winter rain storms in California. The precipitation data include pre-storm event quantitative precipitation fore

Abstract:
Southwest Utah contains what may be the largest landslide complex on land in the world. This complex includes three ancient side-by-side gigantic slides that cover an area roughly the size of Yellowstone National Park with a volume of slide debris that would nearly fill the Grand Canyon to its rim. Geologists call it the Marysvale gravity slide complex— “Marysvale” for the namesake volcanic field that partly failed catastrophically three separate times, and “gravity slide” to call attention to a special class of extremely large and geologically complex landslides several tens to thousands of s

This map of fractures, scarps, faults, and landslides was completed to identify areas in Glacier Bay National Park and Preserve that may present a landslide-generated tsunami hazard. To address the potential of landslide and tsunami hazards in the park, the National Park Service (NPS) and the US Geological Survey (USGS) partnered to conduct a multi-year hazard assessment of Glacier Bay National Park and Preserve. To produce the map described in this report, we used the newly acquired (2019-2020) light detection and ranging (LiDAR) 0.5 to 1.0 m digital elevation models (DEMs) that cover all the

Abstract:
Landslides are a recurring geomorphological process in high mountainous areas like Valemount (Canadian Rocky Mountains, British Columbia). The compilation of detailed information about the spatial distribution and characteristics of past landslides is essential for assessing future potential hazards. To provide baseline geoscience information to stakeholders and decision-makers, we carried out a landslide inventory that covers roughly 1200 km2. Using visual interpretation of aerial orthophotos, a digital elevation model of 5x5 meter resolution and satellite imagery, we compiled up to 1286 land

Abstract:
The Landslide Inventory and Slope Map identifies landslides that demonstrate evidence of gravity-driven movement based on lidar data, geomorphic and topographic analyses, satellite imagery, field checks, and, when available, published geologic maps. Landslides are classified based on the relative recency of surface movement. The slope map provides a preliminary tool to identify areas that may be susceptible to failure. This map is designed for use as a general planning tool to identify areas potentially hazardous to future mass movements.
