This study offers a semi-quantitative assessment of the physical vulnerability of buildings to
landslides in a Portuguese municipality (Loures), as well as the quantitative landslide risk …

The purpose of this paper is to propose a new set of environmental indicators for the fast
estimation of landslide risk over very wide areas. Using Italy (301,340 km2) as a test case …

In this work residents' social vulnerability and buildings' physical vulnerability of the Loures
municipality (Portugal) were combined to locate the areas where the vulnerability is the …

The legislation that demands the evaluation of landslide susceptibility in Portugal at the
municipal level is the National Ecological Reserve (NER). A methodology for the evaluation …

Landslide risk assessment is often a difficult task due to the lack of temporal data on
landslides and triggering events (frequency), run-out distance, landslide magnitude and …

ABSTRACT A landslide quantitative risk analysis is applied the municipality of Santa Marta
de Penaguião (N of Portugal) to evaluate the risk to which the buildings are exposed, using …

The purpose of the present study is the analysis of landslide risk for roads and buildings in a
small test site (20 km2) in the area north of Lisbon (Portugal). For this purpose, an evaluation …

Among the numerous natural hazards, landslides are one of the greatest, as they can cause
enormous loss of life and property, and affect the natural ecosystem and their services …

Physical vulnerability (PV) of buildings and associated potential losses (PLs) due to the
occurrence of shallow slides are semi-quantitatively assessed at the regional scale in a …
