recommendations! Published in 2018 at "Landslides"

DOI: 10.1007/s10346-018-1008-y

Abstract: Landslide hazard remains poorly characterized on regional and global scales. In the tropics in particular, the lack of knowledge on landslide hazard is in sharp contrast with the high landslide susceptibility of the region. Moreover,… read more here.

DOI: 10.1007/s11600-024-01499-w

Abstract: The extraction of geothermal energy is associated with induced seismicity. Depending on the extraction parameters, such as injection pressure and volume, the induced seismicity is time-dependent. We investigate the case of the two geothermal power… read more here.
