Monitoring landslides is essential to understand their dynamics and to reduce the risk of
human losses by raising warnings before a failure. A decade ago, a decrease of apparent …

Environmental seismology consists in studying the mechanical vibrations that originate from,
or that have been affected by external causes, that is to say causes outside the solid Earth …

The Sentinel-2 optical satellites provide a global coverage of land surfaces with a 5-day
revisit time at the Equator. We investigate the ability of these freely available optical images …

Although it is generally assumed that the internal structure of a slope (eg lithology and rock
mass properties, inherited faults and heterogeneities, etc.) is preponderant for the …

The objective of this work is to propose a standard classification of seismic signals
generated by gravitational processes and detected at close distances (< 1 km). We review …

Landslide early warning systems (EWSs) have to be implemented in areas with large risk for
populations or infrastructures when classical structural remediation measures cannot be set …

Résumé We analyze the sensitivity of cross correlations to the anisotropy of the incident field
in the context of seismic ambient noise monitoring of small velocity changes. Numerical …

Flow-like landslides in clayey soils represent serious threats for populations and
infrastructures and have been the subject of numerous studies in the past decade. However …

An earthflow/mudflow of a few thousand cubic metres occurred at the toe of the Pont-
Bourquin Landslide (PBL, Swiss Alps) in late August 2010. This event was preceded by a …

Geophysical methods have a varying degree of potential for detailed characterization of
landslides and their dynamics. In this study, the application of four well-established seismic …
