Small Landslide Susceptibility and Hazard Assessment Based on Airborne LiDAR Data
(Amer Soc Photogrammetry, 2015-03)
Landslides are natural disasters that cause environmental and infrastructure damage worldwide. To prevent future risk posed by such events, effective methods to detect and map their hazards are needed. Traditional landslide ...
Morphology, structure and kinematics of a rainfall controlled slow‐moving Andean landslide, Peru
(Wiley, 2016-09-15)
The large slow‐moving landslide of Maca is located in the upper Colca valley (southern Peru), a region characterized by a well pronounced rainy period, and intense and recurrent sustained seismicity. The landslide, developed ...
Landslide change detection based on Multi-Temporal airborne LIDAR-derived DEMs
(Molecular Diversity Preservation International, 2018-01)
Remote sensing technologies have seen extraordinary improvements in both spatial resolution and accuracy recently. In particular, airborne laser scanning systems can now provide data for surface modeling with unprecedented ...
Landslide susceptibility assessment in mountainous and tropical scarce-data regions using remote sensing data : a case study in the Colombian Andes
(Universidad EAFITGeologíaEscuela de Ciencias. Departamento de GeologíaMedellín, 2017)
Landslides triggered by rainfall are one of the most frequent causes for natural disasters in the
tropical and mountainous countries, such as Colombia. However landslide susceptibility
assessments are often limited due ...
An active large rock slide in the Andean paraglacial environment: the Yerba Loca landslide, central Chile.
(Springer Heidelberg, 2020)
A ca. 2.5 million m(3) landslide occurred in August 2018 in the Yerba Loca valley, Andes Main Cordillera (33 degrees 15 ' S), at about 4000 m a.s.l. The Yerba Loca landslide is a multirotational slide, with a main scarp ...
Tectonic and climatic controls on the Chuquibamba landslide (western Andes, southern Peru)
(European Geosciences UnionDE, 2015-06)
The contribution of landslides to the Quaternary evolution of relief is poorly documented in arid contexts. In southern Peru and northern Chile, several massive landslides disrupt the arid western Andean front. The Chuquibamba ...
Precipitation variability and landslide occurrence in a subtropical mountain ecosystem of NW Argentina
(Elsevier Gmbh, Urban & Fischer Verlag, 2005-12)
Landslides are common on the steep slopes of the subtropical montane forests in Northwestern (NW) Argentina (Yungas). Instrumental and tree-ring records from this region indicate that rainfall has increased during the ...

(European Geosciences UnionDE, 2015-06)
The contribution of landslides to the Quaternary evolution of relief is poorly documented in arid contexts. In southern Peru and northern Chile, several massive landslides disrupt the arid western Andean front. The Chuquibamba ...
The assessment of soil chemical, physical, and structural properties as landslide predisposing factors in the Serra do Mar mountain range (Caraguatatuba, Brazil)
(2020-09-01)
Landslides have environmental, social, and economic impact in the Brazilian Atlantic coast (Serra do Mar). In addition to meteorological, geological, and geomorphological settings, mineralogical and pore space heterogeneities ...
Landslide risk assessment considering socionatural factors: methodology and application to Cubatão municipality, São Paulo, Brazil
(2022-01-01)
The manuscript presents a methodology to integrate spatial information of susceptibility, vulnerability and rainfall thresholds to produce a dynamic landslide risk map. The inputs were combined in two matrices: combining ...
