Anthropogenic land-cover change correlates with landslide fatalities, thereby amplifying the disadvantage of the world's poor. Built on ~60 years of data across 46 countries, this work highlights the urgent need for better planning to reduce risk. Read more here: doi.org/hbwd99

Proud to host our special session “Landslides: Processes, Hazard, and Risk” at MedGU 2025 in Athens, conveners @tolgagorum.bsky.social @uguroeztuerk.bsky.social Stefano Luigi Gariano George Papathanassiou.

Seeing Blatten buried again and again, from every angle... Properly staggering! 😮😱

Another landslide meeting in Athens this year! Join us @tolgagorum.bsky.social, Stefano L. Gariano & George Papathanassiou at our special session at #MedGU25 (10–13 Nov 2025). Submit your abstract by 30 June! Info: 2025.medgu.org

Seismic analysis to understand the 13 February 2024 Çöpler Gold Mine Landslide, Erzincan, Türkiye  eos.org/thelandslide...

New research from @tolgagorum.bsky.social, comments from Ben Leshchinsky and @brucedmalamud.bsky.social @durham-university.bsky.social, @ihrr.bsky.social. Words by @andrewchapman.bsky.social

Almost forgotten today, vintage-style National Parks posters were created between 1935-1940 to invite people to the National Parks in the United States. Using AI, I attempted to employ a similar style for some landslides that have left deep marks in Türkiye. You can find some of the examples below.

Our latest article was featured on @eos.org The Landslide Blog, eos.org/thelandslide.... Many thanks to Dave Petley for summarizing this study and increasing its visibility. I have long appreciated his contributions to the field of landslides. Thanks @davepetley.bsky.social

Strong earthquakes in mountain landscapes can trigger widespread slope failures, initiating chains of multiple hydro-geomorphic hazards. These chains can amplify the geohazards and last many years following strong earthquakes. nature.com/articles/s43...
