WG5 meeting: Soil moisture-based thresholds for the assessment of landslide hazard

LandAware WG5 meeting 20 September 2024, 3 p.m. CEST

Luca Ciabatta from the Research Institute of Geo-Hydrological Protection (IRPI) of the National Research Council (CNR), Perugia, will present his recent work on

Soil moisture-based thresholds for the assessment of landslide hazard.

Summary: The Civil Protection Service of Umbria Region, central Italy, developed a landslide early warning system based on soil moisture conditions and rainfall over the regional territory. By identifying the degree of saturation before and after the rainfall event (obtained through a hydrological model), it has been observed that most of the activations occurred when the soil reached saturation. In this way, an alert can be issued when the amount of rainfall needed by the soil to reach saturation is observed. The proposed method is able to identify correctly most of the proposed events with a very limited amount of false alarms.

WG5 webinar “Landslide susceptibility and road-network connectivity with Machine Learning”

Recording of the WG5 meeting of 25 June 2024

Topic: Landslide susceptibility and road-network connectivity by means of Machine Learning

Joshua Dimasaka (Cambridge University, Centre for Risk in the Built Environment) presented his work on how landslide susceptibility and the associated road-network connectivity can be calculated with Machine Learning. And he showed a very illustrative application of his methods to the case of Norway.

The recorded presentation is available on our YouTube channel:

WG5 meeting on the role of wind in Hurricane prone regions for landslide early warning

NEWS received from
Manfred Stähli (WSL, Switzerland) and Ben Mirus (USGS, USA)

On February 3, 2023, a meeting of LandAware WG 5 “Innovations” addressed the role of wind speed and direction for landslide occurrence in Hurricane prone regions.

Guest speaker, Yuri Gorokhovich (Lehman College, City University of New York) illustrated how we are getting closer to predicting landslides in Hurricane prone regions in real-time using wind information.

The recorded presentation is available in the LandAware youtube channel

The next WG 5 meeting – with a completely different topic – will take place in May/June 2023.
