    “This study updates an article published in NHESS journal in 2015 [link above] and investigates long-term changes in landslide-triggering rainfall conditions in Calabria (southern Italy) over 1921–2020. A catalogue of 3,006 rainfall events associated with landslides (RELs) was reconstructed using 9,530 landslide records and daily rainfall measurements from 318 gauges. Rainfall thresholds were calculated for 15 30-year moving windows to investigate the triggering conditions of the RELs. Results show a marked increase in the number of RELs after 2009, shifts in seasonal occurrence, and decreasing rainfall duration and cumulative amounts. Triggering rainfall shows an overall decreasing trend over the years…”
