Automated determination of landslide locations after large trigger events: advantages and disadvantages compared to manual mapping (2022)
Journal Article
Milledge, D., Bellugi, D., Watt, J., & Densmore, A. (2022). Automated determination of landslide locations after large trigger events: advantages and disadvantages compared to manual mapping. Natural Hazards and Earth System Sciences, 22(2), 481-508. https://doi.org/10.5194/nhess-22-481-2022

Earthquakes in mountainous areas can trigger thousands of co-seismic landslides, causing significant damage, hampering relief efforts, and rapidly redistributing sediment across the landscape. Efforts to understand the controls on these landslides re...
