Seasonal rockfall risk analysis in a touristic island: Application to the Tramu...
Santos, Pedro Pinto; Reyes-Carmona, Cristina; Pereira, Susana; Sarro, Roberto; Martínez-Corbella, Mónica; Coll-Ramis, Miquel Àngel; Zêzere, José LuísRockfalls are an ever-present possibility in the mountainous context of the Tramuntana Region (Mallorca, Spain). Recent events have shown the high potential for direct and indirect impact on the safety of people and economic activities, lasting for weeks or even months. In the present study, we start from a probabilistic assessment of the rockfall hazard (spatial propensity and temporal recurrence), based on a ...

Role of Geological Surveys of Europe in landslide monitoring
Auflič, Mateja Jemec; Herrera, Gerardo; Mateos, Rosa María; Poyiadji, Eleftheria; Quental, Lídia; Severine, Bernardie; Peternel, Tina; Podolszki, LaszloABSTRACT: This work was developed by the Earth Observation and Geohazards Expert Group from EGS and provides an overview of landslide monitoring techniques from 2005 to 2021. Based on the questionnaire, the following objectives were set: (1) to identify the type of monitored landslides, (2) to identify the landslide monitoring techniques, (3) to identify the spatial resolution, temporal resolution, and status o...
Landslide monitoring techniques in the Geological Surveys of Europe
Auflič, Mateja Jemec; Herrera, Gerardo; Mateos, Rosa María; Poyiadji, Eleftheria; Quental, Lídia; Severine, Bernardie; Peternel, Tina; Podolszki, LaszloABSTRACT: Landslide monitoring is a mandatory step in landslide risk assessment. It requires collecting data on landslide conditions (e.g., areal extent, landslide kinematics, surface topography, hydrogeometeorological parameters, and failure surfaces) from different time periods and at different scales, from site-specific to local, regional, and national, to assess landslide activity. In this analysis, we coll...
Assessment of the socio-economic impacts of extreme weather events on the coast...
Mateos, Rosa María; Sarro, Roberto; Díez-Herrero, Andrés; Reyes-Carmona, Cristina; López-Vinielles, Juan; Ezquerro, Pablo; Martínez-Corbella, MónicaCoastal regions in Southwest Europe have experienced major interventions and transformations of the territory with unprecedented urban development, primarily related to growing tourism activity. The coast is the place where marine and terrestrial processes converge, making it highly vulnerable to the effects of climate change. However, the lack of information on the frequency of these extreme weather events and...

Landslides monitoring techniques review in the Geological Surveys of Europe
Auflič, Mateja Jemec; Herrera, Gerardo; Mateos, Rosa María; Poyiadji, Eleftheria; Quental, Lídia; Severine, Bernardie; Peternel, Tina; Podolszki, LaszloABSTRACT: Landsliding is the downslope movement of surface material under the force of gravity, initiated when gravitational and other types of shear stresses within the slope exceed the shear strength of the material that forms the slope. Often, landslides pose a physical and environmental threat to communities living in landslide-prone areas. While much landslide research focuses on monitoring techniques to d...
