FSLAM: A QGIS plugin for fast regional susceptibility assessment of rainfall-induced landslides
(Elsevier, 2022-04)
Article
Open AccessShallow slope failures triggered by rainfall commonly pose considerable risks in mountainous areas. In order to delineate areas where landslides are more prone to occur within a region, we have designed and developed a ... -
Rockfalls: analysis of the block fragmentation through field experiments
(2022-05)
Article
Open AccessFragmentation is a common feature of rockfall that exerts a strong control on the trajectories of the generated blocks, the impact energies, and the runout. In this paper, we present a set of four real-scale rockfall tests ... -
Capturing rockfall kinematic and fragmentation parameters using high-speed camera system
(2022-06-05)
Article
Open AccessThis paper presents a procedure for tracking rockfall trajectories and extracting kinematic parameters from both the impacts and the resultant fragments. A set of full scale rockfall experiments was performed in a quarry ... -
Application of a fuzzy verification framework for the evaluation of a regional-scale landslide early warning system during the January 2020 Gloria storm in Catalonia (NE Spain)
(2022-07)
Article
Open AccessThe Gloria storm rainfalls affected Catalonia from 20 to 23 January 2020 and triggered multiple landslides, some of which affected buildings and infrastructures (such as roads and railways). This paper presents the rainfall ... -
A Framework to Project Future Rainfall Scenarios: An Application to Shallow Landslide-Triggering Summer Rainfall in Wanzhou County China
(2022-03-01)
Article
Open AccessFatal landslides are a widespread geohazard that have affected millions of people and have claimed the lives of thousands around the globe. A change in climate has significantly increased the frequency and magnitude of ... -
Drone-based identification of erosive processes in open-pit mining restored areas
(Multidisciplinary Digital Publishing Institute (MDPI), 2022-02)
Article
Open AccessUnmanned Aerial Systems, or drones, are very helpful tools for managing open-pit mining operations and developing ecological restoration activities. This article presents a method for identifying water erosion processes ... -
Impacts of future climate and land cover changes on landslide susceptibility: regional scale modelling in the Val d’Aran region (Pyrenees, Spain)
(2022-01)
Article
Open AccessIt is widely accepted that future environmental changes will affect rainfall-induced shallow slides in high-mountain areas. In this study, the Val d’Aran region located in the Central Pyrenees was selected to analyze and ... -
Monitoring of rainfall and soil moisture at the Rebaixader catchment (Central Pyrenees)
(2021-05)
Article
Restricted access - publisher's policyThe instrumental monitoring of torrential catchments is a fundamental research task that provides necessary information to improve our understanding of the mechanisms of debris flows. While most monitoring sites include ... -
Fast physically-based model for rainfall-induced landslide susceptibility assessment at regional scale
(2021-06-01)
Article
Open AccessRainfall-induced landslides represent an important threat in mountainous areas. Therefore, a physically-based model called “Fast Shallow Landslide Assessment Model” (FSLAM) was developed to calculate large areas (>100 km2 ... -
Definitions and concepts for quantitative rockfall hazard and risk analysis
(2021-04)
Article
Open AccessThere is an increasing need for quantitative rockfall hazard and risk assessment that requires a precise definition of the terms and concepts used for this particular type of landslide. This paper suggests using terms that ... -
Past, present and future monitoring at the Vallcebre landslide (Eastern Pyrenees, Spain)
(2021-01)
Article
Open AccessWorks carried out to monitor the displacements of the Vallcebre landslide (Pyrenees range, NE of Spain) since 1987 are presented. The landslide, which extends over an area of about 0.8 km2 and affects more than 20 × 106 ... -
Slope orientation and vegetation effects on soil thermo-hydraulic behavior: an experimental study
(2021-01)
Article
Open AccessThe stability and erosion of natural and man-made slopes is influenced by soil-vegetation-atmosphere interactions and the thermo-hydro-mechanical slope conditions. Understanding such interactions at the source of slope ...
