Abstract:<p>Landslide occurrences are governed by precondition factors and triggering factors. Hence, it is desirable to include physical parameters representing precondition factors in determining thresholds over which landslides are likely to occur. In the case of rainfall-triggered landslides, such parameters include soil properties and land cover information. However, high-resolution data required for a physical-based approach are rarely readily available for a large area, especially in developed coun… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
