ChangingRISKS: Research challenges for the assessment and communication on possible effects of global changes on landslide risks

Abstract

1 Pag.The project work is focused on two mountain study areas located in France (Barcelonnette Basin, South East France) and in Austria (district Waidhoffen/Ybbs, Lower Austria).These research areas, characterized by a variety of environmental, economical and social settings, are severely affected by landslides, and have experienced significant landuse modifications and human interferences over the last century. Preliminary results on the influence of changing landuse conditions and changing climate are presented through the application of a process-based modeling chain able to simulate transient groundwater hydrology and slope instability from observed and simulated climate data sets.Peer reviewe
