Forecasting the time of failure of landslides at slope-scale is a difficult yet important task that
can mitigate the effects of slope failures in terms of both human lives and economic losses …

Avalanching glacier instabilities are gravity‐driven rupture phenomena that might cause
major disasters, especially when they are at the origin of a chain of processes. Reliably …

On 17 November 2016, an unexpected slope failure occurred in an undisclosed copper
open-pit mine. The nature of the event urged for a thorough back-analysis of slope …

Landslides play an important role in the evolution of landforms and represent a serious
hazard in many areas of the World. In places, fatalities and economic damage caused by …

In this paper we examine data generated using high‐resolution three‐dimensional laser
scanning monitoring of coastal rock cliffs. These data are used to identify spatial and …

The catastrophic Vaiont landslide (Southern Alps, Italy) of 9 October 1963 moved 2.7× 108
m3 of rock that collapsed in an artificial lake, causing a giant wave that killed 1917 people …

The forecast of a landslide's time of failure and the definition of alert thresholds are
fundamental aspects in the study of natural hazards. However, these tasks are particularly …

On the 9th October 1963 a catastrophic landslide suddenly occurred on the southern slope
of the Vajont dam reservoir. A mass of approximately 270 million m3 collapsed into the …

Better understanding the evolutionary mechanism of landslides is very important to predict
their occurrence based on firm scientific grounds. The stability of a rock slope is often …

The potential of long-term, real-time surface displacement monitoring by ground-based
radar interferometry (GB-InSAR) to improve the understanding of mechanisms and set up …
