We are happy to participate in the European Geosciences Union (EGU) General Assembly 2023. We are presenting three PROSLIDE contributions in the format of 10-min oral presentations as follows:

Functional regression for space-time prediction of precipitation-induced shallow landslides in South Tyrol, Italy
NH3.6 – Space and time forecasting of landslides
Thursday, April 27th, 08:45 – 8:55 CEST
Abstract here

Improving the performance of a dynamic slope stability model (TRIGRS) with integrated spatio-temporal precipitation data
NH3.6 – Space and time forecasting of landslides
Thursday, April 27th, 08:45 – 8:55 CEST
Abstract here

A data-driven approach to derive spatially explicit dynamic “thresholds” for shallow landslide occurrence in South Tyrol (Italy)
NH3.7 – Towards reliable landslide early warning systems

On March 20th, Mateo Moreno gave a talk on findings in the data-driven analyses for the PROSLIDE project. The presentation was part of a series of seminars at the Biostatistics and Spatial Processes (BioSP) unit at the National Research Institute for Agriculture, Food and the Environment (INRAE).

In the week of March 20th, Mateo Moreno visited the Biostatistics and Spatial Processes (BioSP) unit at the National Research Institute for Agriculture, Food and the Environment (INRAE), Avignon, France.  The research visit covered the ongoing analysis regarding dynamic landslide modeling with daily precipitation estimates using functional regression approaches.

On November 15th, Mateo Moreno gave an overview of some of the research findings within the PROSLIDE project. The presentation was entitled Space-time modeling of precipitation-induced shallow landslides in South Tyrol, Italy and it was presented during a series of seminars at the Faculty of Geo-information Science and Earth Observation (ITC),  University of Twente.

As it was announced in previous days, we glady had the chance to share with the scientific community at the 10th International Conference of the International Association of Geomorphologists (IAG) two contributions on the frame of the PROSLDIE project.

Stefan Steger gave an oral presentation on Applying a hierarchical Generalized Additive Model to integrate predisposing, preparatory and triggering factors for landslide prediction (session ICG2022-19 – Geomorphological hazards and risk management) –> see more

 &

Mateo Moreno presented a poster on Comparing different strategies to incorporate the effectively surveyed area into landslide susceptibility modeling (session ICG2022-19 – Geomorphological hazards and risk management) –> see more

On the 1st of September, at the Eurac Research headquarters, we hosted the extended partner meeting for the PROSLIDE project with representatives from partner and associated partner institutions. The event had the goal of providing an overview of the recent progress developed within the project, offering room for discussion on improvement options and perspectives on the upcoming project stages.

The full-day meeting was carried out in blocks of presentations mainly divided into the regional-scale and catchment-scale results. For the first one, the presented content covered the landslide inventory preparation, rainfall thresholds and prediction surfaces, pixel-based and slope unit-based dynamic modeling of shallow landslide occurrence. The second part covered the study site selection, fieldwork and laboratory analyses, and the physically-based slope stability modeling. The meeting also included presentation blocks in which the plans for the project’s final phase were shared and discussed with the audience.

In the last part of the day, CNR-IRPI gave two presentations on empirical rainfall thresholds for landslide initiation and the Italian (national and regional) Landslide Early Warning System. Lastly, CNR-ISAC presented the RADAR precipitation estimation for debris flow occurrence in South Tyrol.

We thank all our attendees for the very interesting contributions and lively discussions.

This year, we will also participate in the 10th International Conference of the International Association of Geomorphologists (IAG). Two of our contributions in the frame of PROSLIDE were accepted in the format of a 15-min oral presentation and a poster entitled as follows:

Applying a hierarchical Generalized Additive Model to integrate predisposing, preparatory and triggering factors for landslide prediction (session ICG2022-19 – Geomorphological hazards and risk management)  scheduled for Monday, Sep 12th at 18:00 (GMT+1). Please find the abstract here.

&

Comparing different strategies to incorporate the effectively surveyed area into landslide susceptibility modeling (session ICG2022-19 – Geomorphological hazards and risk management) scheduled for Tuesday, Sep 13th at 16:45 (GMT+1). Please find the abstract here.

This year, we are happy to participate in the European Geosciences Union (EGU) General Assembly 2022. We were accepted for two PROSLIDE contributions in the format of 7-min short oral presentations entitled as follows:

A data-driven approach to establish prediction surfaces for rainfall-induced shallow landslides in South Tyrol, Italy (session NH3.7 – Towards reliable landslide early warning systems)  scheduled for Wednesday, May 25th at 14:25 CEST. Please find the abstract here.

&

Space-time modeling of rainfall-induced shallow landslides in South Tyrol, Italy (session NH3.6 – Space and time forecasting of landslides) scheduled for Tuesday, May 24th at 13:27 CEST. Please find the abstract here.

Last Friday, November 5th,  Stefan Steger presented analyses related to the PROSLIDE project to the international landslide research community at the World Landslide Forum 5 WLF5 | World Lanslide Forum 5 (iplhq.org). He presented A statistical exploratory analysis of inventoried movements for South Tyrol (Italy) as part of  the Theme 2: Hazard and vulnerability mapping and zonation.
