Populations and infrastructure in high mountain regions are exposed to a wide range of
natural hazards, the frequency, magnitude, and location of which are extremely sensitive to …

In seismically-active regions, earthquake-induced landslides (EqIL) are likely to enhance
slope denudation and sediment delivery both over short and longer terms, which might …

The characterisation of the subsurface of a landslide is a critical step in developing ground
models that inform planned mitigation measures, remediation works or future early-warning …

A rapid and accurate prediction of a landslide dam's life span is of significant importance for
emergency geological treatment. However, current prediction models for the state of a …

Tailings dams retain the waste by-products of mining operations and are among the world's
largest engineered structures. Recent tailings dam failures highlight important gaps in …

Upsurge of glacier-related hazards in High Mountain Asia (HMA) has been evident in recent
years due to global warming. While many glacial-related hazards are instantaneous, some …

Geomorphological features are commonly used to identify potential landslides.
Nevertheless, overemphasis on these features could lead to misjudgment. This research …

The estimation of inversion parameters for seepage models is very important for ensuring
the safety of earth/rockfill dams. In most existing studies, only hydraulic characteristics have …

Rainfall is the main factor inducing landslides. Clarifying rainfall-induced landslides'
mechanisms and establishing adequate warning and prevention measures are crucial for …

The current highest glacial lake outburst floods (GLOFs) risk level is centered in the eastern
Himalaya. GLOFs represent a serious threat to downstream inhabitants and ecological …
