"Data centers represent 27% of development sites in the U.S. this year. It’s the second-highest category after apartment buildings..."

Land prices are up 79% from last year.

And "home builders cannot bid in that market, because a builder’s land budget is capped by what home buyers can afford. A data center operator faces no such constraint. The result is ... no homes at all."

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!!
