A new method to detect changes in displacement rates of slow-moving landslides using InSAR time series

Slow-moving landslides move downslope at velocities that range from mm year⁻¹ to m year⁻¹. Such deformations can be measured using satellite-based synthetic aperture radar interferometry (InSAR). We developed a new method to systematically detect and quantify accelerations and decelerations of slowly deforming areas...

Characterization and hydrological analysis of the guarumales deep-seated landslide in the tropical ecuadorian andes

The high landslide risk potential along the steep hillslopes of the Eastern Andes in Ecuador provides challenges for hazard mitigation, especially in areas with hydropower dams and reservoirs. The objective of this study was to characterize, understand, and quantify the mechanisms driving the motions of the Guarumales landslide. This 1.5 km...
