DOI: 10.1002/esp.4964
Abstract: Landslides in forested landscapes have far‐reaching implications, beyond that of just destroying the forest itself, sometimes initiating large‐scale sediment disasters. Although vegetation increases slope stability through its root network, it is hard to evaluate its… read more here.
