Landslides is the common platform for publication of integrated research on all aspects of landslides, publishing research papers, news of recent landslide events and information on ICL activities. Landslides is the official journal of the International Consortium on Landslides (ICL).

Landslides are gravitational mass movements of rock, debris or earth. They may occur in conjunction with other major natural disasters such as floods, earthquakes and volcanic eruptions. Expanding urbanization and changing land-use practices have increased the incidence of landslide disasters.

Jan 2, 2025 · For very large landslides, drainage using tunnels, shafts, or galleries outside the instability, with or without upward boreholes, is now a preferred solution for critical situations, as in Åknes, Norway (Kristensen et al. 2020) or La Saxe, Italy (Bertolo pers. comm.).

Jan 15, 2025 · Landslides pose a serious global threat, causing immense destruction and affecting large populations across various regions. The data spanning from 1903 to 2023 illustrates the devastating consequences of these events, …

Feb 26, 2024 · This model can study the hazard area of landslides, predict the failure region of unstable slopes, and reduce the multiple losses caused by landslides. There are guiding functions and practical values for life and property protection and regional economic development.

Jan 27, 2024 · This on-site field assessment included examination of the pattern of landslides, landslide characteristics, debris flow, and damage to adjoining structures. The investigations are still ongoing to ascertain the actual number of landslides, their pattern and the landslide inventory of the state will be updated accordingly.

Jan 3, 2022 · Although there are many underline causes behind the frequent landslides in Sri Lanka, it is evident that land use land cover alterations including forest cover removal, unplanned settlement projects, inappropriate hill-cutting are the primary causes behind the …

Jan 6, 2025 · In this study, a new and detailed inventory of large-scale landslides in the Chinese Himalayas is conducted through artificial interpretation of remote sensing imagery and field surveys, with 794 landslides having volumes ≥ 106 m3 identified.

Sep 20, 2021 · In this paper, we present a cause-impact analysis of landslides that occurred due to the monsoon rainfall in the years 2018, 2019 and 2020. We have created an event-based landslide inventory post-rainfall season for the entire state and then selected six major landslides for detailed analysis.

Landslides are natural and potentially hazardous phenomena that move rock, debris, or earth downslope under the inuence of grav - ity (Cruden and Varnes 1996). Landslides arise from interactions between slope geometry, soil and rock properties, as well as surface and groundwater dynamics (Bogaard and Greco 2016). These pre -
