Landslides are gravitational mass movements of rock| debris or earth. They may occur in conjunction with other major natural disasters such as floods| earthquakes and volcanic eruptions. Expanding urbanization and changing land-use practices have increased the incidence of landslide disasters. Landslides as catastrophic events include human injury| loss of life and economic devastation and are studied as part of the fields of earth| water and engineering sciences. The aim of the journal Landslides is to be the common platform for the publication of integrated research on landslide processes| hazards| risk analysis| mitigation| and the protection of our cultural heritage and the environment. The journal publishes research papers| news of recent landslide events and information on the activities of the International Consortium on Landslides. - Landslide dynamics| mechanisms and processes - Landslide risk evaluation: hazard assessment| hazard mapping| and vulnerability assessment - Geological| Geotechnical| Hydrological and Geophysical modeling - Effects of meteorological| hydrological and global climatic change factors - Monitoring including remote sensing and other non-invasive systems - New technology| expert and intelligent systems - Application of GIS techniques - Rock slides| rock falls| debris flows| earth flows| and lateral spreads - Large-scale landslides| lahars and pyroclastic flows in volcanic zones - Marine and reservoir related landslides - Landslide related tsunamis and seiches - Landslide disasters in urban areas and along critical infrastructure - Landslides and natural resources - Land development and land-use practices - Landslide remedial measures / prevention works - Temporal and spatial prediction of landslides - Early warning and evacuation - Global landslide database
