Abstract:<p>Landslides are natural phenomena that cause significant socioeconomic and environmental impacts in mountainous regions. Statistical models used to predict landslides frequently use Digital Terrain Models (DMTs) to identify scars and to generate thematic maps representing relevant causative factors (e.g., slope, aspect, curvature).The topographical causative factors tell us how some morphometrical parameters control slope stability and the algebraical combination of weighted causative factors (… 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.
