First dendrogeomorphological dating of DSGSD: specificity of the reconstruction
Journal: Landslides
Year: 2025

Abstract Globally, one of the most widespread types of slope deformation is DSGSD (deep-seated gravitational slope deformation), which typically takes tens of thousands of years to develop, but can also be catastrophically reactivated and may represent a recent natural hazard. Knowledge of their past evolution is based mostly on absolute dating of old whereas recent evolution can be covered by appropriate monitoring. Bridging these two time periods is currently a major challenge. This study thus
