Abstract

Advances in Shallow Landslide Hydrology and Triggering Mechanisms: A Multidisciplinary Approach

Highlights

  • This special issue collects papers representing some of the most recent developments in this field, with a special emphasis given to recent results obtained by both smallscale experiments and analysis of specific case histories

  • The vadose zone of steep slopes is often affected by rainfallinduced shallow landslides, which can cause widespread direct and indirect damage to the terrain and infrastructures, as well as urban and rural developments

  • The hydrological dynamics leading to shallow landslide initiation, the hydraulic properties at the slope scale, and the role of hysteretic effects as well as the soil nonequilibrium processes in slope stability assessment are still not completely understood and require further investigation
