This work proposes a methodology to compare the forecasting effectiveness of different
rainfall threshold models for landslide forecasting. We tested our methodology with two state …

Flash floods are an increasing concern, especially in regions with abrupt topography and
small areas where floods are rapid and energy-filled. That is the case of the El Guamo …

Located in a mountainous area of south-eastern Brazil, the municipality of Campos do
Jordão has been hit by several landslides in recent history. Among those events, the …

In this paper, the updating of rainfall thresholds for landslide early warning systems (EWSs)
is presented. Rainfall thresholds are widely used in regional-scale landslide EWSs, but the …

A systematic inventory of landslide events over regional spatial scales and through time is
required for investigating changes in landslide frequency along-side changes in landslide …

Rainfall-induced landslides pose a significant threat to human life, destroy highways and
railways, and cause farmland degradation in the Loess Plateau. From 19 June 2013 to 26 …

This paper presents an improved method of using threshold of peak rainfall intensity for
robust flood/flash flood evaluation and warnings in the state of São Paulo, Brazil. The …

Shallow landslides due to the soil saturation induced by intense rainfall events are very
common in northern Italy, particularly in the Alps and Prealps. They are usually triggered …

Rainfall is one of the most significant natural factors for inducing landslides. The shallow
saturated zone formed in slopes during rainfall is an important factor in inducing shallow …

The study of rainfall thresholds is vital in understanding the factors that trigger landslides,
being one of the criteria applied to landslide early warning systems that aim to mitigate their …
