The book progresses through fundamental concepts of slope stability, geological factors predisposing landscapes to failure, and environmental triggers, quantifying their impact. A significant portion focuses on recognizing early warning signs like ground deformation and changes in groundwater levels. It draws from case studies across diverse regions and climatic zones, incorporating landslide inventories and remote sensing data.
It also addresses practical applications, including hazard mapping and risk assessment. The book's value lies in providing a comprehensive guide for professionals in Earth Sciences, Geography, and Environment to understand and manage landslide hazards effectively, connecting to fields like civil engineering and disaster management. For instance, civil engineers can use this information to design more stable infrastructure.
