To bring to fruition the capability of nature-based solutions (NBS) in mitigating hydro-
meteorological risks (HMRs) and facilitate their widespread uptake require a consolidated …

The influence of vegetation on mechanical and hydrological soil behavior represents a
significant factor to be considered in shallow landslides modelling. Among the multiple …

The hydrological effect of vegetation on rainfall-induced landslides has rarely been
quantified and its integration into slope stability analysis methods remains a challenge. Our …

The role of land use dynamics on shallow landslide susceptibility remains an unresolved
problem. Thus, this work aims to assess the influence of land use changes on shallow …

In this work, a transient rainfall infiltration and grid‐based regional slope‐stability model
(TRIGRS) was implemented in a case study of Yan'an City, Northwest China. In this area …

Rainfall-induced landslides, exacerbated by climate change, require urgent attention to
identify vulnerable regions and propose effective risk mitigation measures. Extensive …

Plant roots positively and negatively contribute to hillslope stability by the perspective of soil
strength and water flow infiltration improvement. To further examine the controversy, this …

We present a regionally distributed slope stability modelling for shallow landslides
considering the effect of plant roots. Our modelling is based on the physically-based …

Engineering methods such as soil nails, geosynthetic reinforcement, retaining structures,
gabions, and shotcrete are implemented to stabilize road cut slopes along mountainous …

Root reinforcement, provided by plants in soil, can be exerted by a mechanical effect,
increasing soil shear strength for the presence of roots, or by a hydrological effect, induced …
