Multiscale Comparison of Regional Rainfall-Induced Landslide Predictive Models: The Example of Hurricane Maria in Puerto Rico

Mirna Kassem, Dimitrios Zekkos, Weibing Gong, Marin Kristen Clark et autres

Severe storms can trigger hundreds to thousands of landslides in mountainous regions, yet predicting rainfall-induced landslides across spatial scales remains challenging. Most existing hazard models operate either at single-hillslope scales using high-resolution mechanistic formulations or at regional to global scales using simplified …

Open Inventories of Rainfall‐Triggered Landslides

Rachel B. Soobitsky, Jessica R. P. Sutton, Thomas A. Stanley, Pukar Man Amatya et autres

ABSTRACT Landslide inventories support both post‐event response and predictive model evaluation, but it remains challenging to create public, current, comprehensive and accurate landslide inventories. In response to this need, thousands of rainfall‐triggered landslides were mapped and organised within the National Aeronautics and …

Landslide Hazard Is Projected to Increase Across High Mountain Asia

Thomas A. Stanley, Rachel B. Soobitsky, Pukar Man Amatya, Dalia Bach Kirschbaum

Abstract High Mountain Asia has long been known as a hotspot for landslide risk, and studies have suggested that landslide hazard is likely to increase in this region over the coming decades. Extreme precipitation may become more frequent, with a nonlinear response …

Evaluating Precipitation Events Using GPM IMERG 30-Minute Near-Real-Time Precipitation Estimates

Jessica R. P. Sutton, Dalia Bach Kirschbaum, Thomas A. Stanley, Elijah Orland

Abstract Accurately detecting and estimating precipitation at near–real time (NRT) is of utmost importance for the early detection and monitoring of hydrometeorological hazards. The precipitation product, Integrated Multi-satellitE Retrievals for Global Precipitation Measurement (IMERG), provides NRT 0.1° and 30-min precipitation estimates across …

Multitemporal landslide inventory and susceptibility map for the Arun River Basin, Nepal

Pukar Man Amatya, Robert Emberson, Dalia Bach Kirschbaum

Abstract The transboundary Arun River Basin (ARB) spreads across Nepal and Tibet. Nearly 95% of the basin lies in Tibet through which the Pumqu River flows, forming the Arun River once it enters Nepal. The ARB has five large hydropower projects undergoing …

Learnings from rapid response efforts to remotely detect landslides triggered by the August 2021 Nippes earthquake and Tropical Storm Grace in Haiti

Pukar Man Amatya, Corey M. Scheip, Aline Déprez, Jean‐Philippe Malet et autres

Abstract On August 14, 2021, a Mw 7.2 earthquake struck the Tiburon Peninsula of western Haiti triggering thousands of landslides. Three days after the earthquake on August 17, 2021, Tropical Storm Grace crossed shallow waters offshore of southern Haiti triggering more landslides …

Earth observations into action: the systemic integration of earth observation applications into national risk reduction decision structures

David Eley Borges, Steven Ramage, David S. Green, Christina Justice et autres

Purpose As stated in the United Nations Global Assessment Report 2022 Concept Note, decision-makers everywhere need data and statistics that are accurate, timely, sufficiently disaggregated, relevant, accessible and easy to use. The purpose of this paper is to demonstrate scalable and replicable …

Harnessing new tools and satellite products to support landslide forecasting and capacity building over High Mountain Asia

Dalia Bach Kirschbaum, Thomas A. Stanley, Pukar Man Amatya

The Hindu Kush-Himalaya (HKH) is one of the greatest geologically fragile young mountain systems in the world and are highly vulnerable to landslides. Extreme rainfall, seismic activity and human interventions result in landslides and related hazards that cause severe economic losses each …

Spatial and Temporal Analysis of Global Landslide Reporting Using a Decade of the Global Landslide Catalog

Chelsea Dandridge, Thomas A. Stanley, Dalia Bach Kirschbaum, V. Lakshmi

Rainfall-triggered landslides can result in devastating loss of life and property damage and are a growing concern from a local to global scale. NASA’s global landslide catalog (GLC) compiles a record of rainfall-triggered landslide events from media reports, academic articles, and existing …

Toward a Globally-Applicable Uncertainty Quantification Framework for Satellite Multisensor Precipitation Products Based on GPM DPR

Zhe Li, Daniel Benjamin Wright, Samantha H. Hartke, Dalia Bach Kirschbaum et autres

The usefulness of satellite multisensor precipitation products such as NASA’s 30-min, 0.1° Integrated Multi-satellitE Retrievals for the Global Precipitation Measurement (GPM) mission (IMERG) is hindered by their associated errors. Reliable estimates of uncertainty would mitigate this limitation, especially in near-real time when …

A dynamic landslide hazard monitoring framework for the Lower Mekong Region

Nishan Kumar Biswas, Thomas A. Stanley, Dalia Bach Kirschbaum, Pukar Man Amatya et autres

The Lower Mekong region is one of the most landslide-prone areas of the world. Despite the need for dynamic characterization of landslide hazard zones within the region, it is largely understudied for several reasons. Dynamic and integrated understanding of landslide processes requires …
