Session Proposal: Monitoring, Mapping, and Modeling of Regional-Scale Slope Failure Hazards (AGU25)

NH030
Monitoring, Mapping, and Modeling of Regional-Scale Slope Failure Hazards

Session ID#: 247809

Session Description:
Slope failures, including landslides, debris flows, and rockfalls, represent a persistent and intensifying geological hazard worldwide, particularly under conditions of extreme rainfall, wildfire disturbance, seismic activity, and land use change. These hazards pose significant threats to communities, infrastructure, and ecosystems, creating an urgent need for effective monitoring, mapping, and modeling to improve early warning and risk mitigation strategies. This session invites contributions that advance the science of regional-scale slope failure hazard assessment through innovative methods in monitoring, mapping, and modeling. We particularly seek studies that leverage remote sensing data, physics-based simulations, and data-driven or hybrid modeling frameworks to characterize triggering conditions, quantify hazard extent, and enable timely forecasting. Submissions that explore the integration of observational data with models, address uncertainty quantification, or demonstrate the application of these approaches to real-world decision-making related to slope failure hazards are especially encouraged.
