New construction on landslide-prone land can be improved through proper engineering (for example, grading, excavating) by first identifying the site’s susceptibility to slope failures and by creating …

It is the purpose of this chapter to re-view the whole range of earth move-ments that may properly be regarded as landslides and to classify these move-ments according to factors that have some …

In this study, we introduce an approach for uncovering landslide failure types based on their mode of movement by examining the topological properties inherent in the 3D shapes of landslides.

A landslide generally refers to the downhill movement of rock, soil, or debris. The term landslide can also refer to the deposit that is created by a landslide event.

Mar 1, 2023 · The climate crisis is causing more intense rain events, earlier snow melt, rising sea levels and larger wildfires, increasing landslide risk. But we can take action to prepare.

Landslide, mudflow, and debris-flow problems are often caused by land mismanagement. Improper land-use practices on ground of questionable stability, particularly in mountain, canyon, and coastal …

A landslide or landslip refers to a wide range of ground movement, such as rock falls, deep failure of slopes and shallow debris flows.
