Chiba Prefecture's record rainfall in August came from an uncharacteristically slow-moving storm, say experts who are planning further analysis to determine more precisely what caused the rain clouds to linger. https://www.japantimes.co.jp/environment/2026/09/11/climate-change/chiba-rain-analysis/?utm_medium=Social&utm_source=mastodon #environment #climatechange #chiba #floods #landslides #japanmeteorologicalagency #meteorologicalresearchinstitute

University of Washington: 6.5 million Americans face landslide risks — a new database shows where they live. “The new Landslide Exposure Database is the first resource to map building-level landslide risk for the entire U.S. The database, developed by University of Washington researchers, rates 128 million buildings by landslide susceptibility, and uses socioeconomic data to assess […]

University of Kentucky: CLIMBS launches real-time network to forecast Kentucky landslides. “The Slope Hydrologic Monitoring Network website is a pioneering digital platform that offers real-time insights into the stability of Kentucky’s hillslopes…. The new monitoring network consists of 24 stations strategically placed across landslide-prone terrain in Eastern Kentucky. These stations act […]

The mountain is falling off on Waterfall! Way due to traffic overloading

"The road is a key tourism and agricultural route between north-west NSW and the coast, vital for the transport of livestock, dairy and produce over the Great Dividing Range...We've had 150 tonnes coming down over the initial 50 tonnes of material that fell."

Landslide susceptibility near highways is increased by 1 order of magnitude in the Andes of southern Ecuador, Loja province
"Mountain roads in developing countries are known to increase landslide occurrence due to often inadequate drainage systems and mechanical destabilization of hillslopes by undercutting and overloading." >>

Today our article "#Landuse and #landcover as a conditioning factor in landslide #susceptibility: a #literaturereview" was accepted to be published in #Landslides, the leading journal on this subject.

This article is a part of my PhD thesis focused on landslide susceptibility and the influence of spatial heterogeneity and #LUCC.

I am very happy to end 2022 with this news!

Thank you to all the collaborators!!
