Abstract
Using projected meteorological parameters (primarily precipitation) from a weather prediction model, SEGMENT-Landslide (and other 3D hydraulic landslide models) can assist in predicting future storm-triggered landslides. However, mostly, this strong coupling mostly is unnecessary as storm-triggered landslides always are associated with extreme precipitation. Thus, a more efficient strategy is to determine the rainy season for a given region and run SEGMENT-Landslide only for the rainy season. Using SEGMENT-Landslide in this manner is critically important for mitigating landslide damage to existing infrastructure and settlement communities. Another important application of SEGMENT-Landslide is in the planning for future construction of important infrastructure and human settlement, as the population increases.
