Landslides : detection prediction and monitoring$dtechnological developments This book intends to decipher the knowledge in the advancement of understanding detecting predicting and monitoring landslides. The number of massive landslides and the damages they cause has increased across the globe in recent times. It is one of the most devastating natural hazards that cause widespread damage to habitat on a local regional and global scale. International experts provide their experience in landslide research and practice to help stakeholders mitigate and predict potential landslides. The book comprises chapters on: Dynamics mechanisms and processes of landslides; Geological geotechnical hydrological and geophysical modelling for landslides; Mapping and assessment of hazard vulnerability and risk associated with landslides; Monitoring and early warning of landslides; Application of remote sensing and GIS techniques in monitoring and assessment of landslides. The book will be of interest to researchers practitioners and decision makers in adapting suitable modern techniques for landslide study.
