What is a Landslide?

Movement of rock, earth, or debris down a slope, often triggered by heavy rainfall, earthquakes, or human activities.

 

Why It Matters:

Understanding the link between climate change and weather patterns is vital for community preparedness and effective landslide monitoring and mitigation.

 

Climate Changes:

Average global temperature has risen by 1.2°C since the late 19th century due to global warming and human activities like fossil fuel burning and deforestation.

 

Impact on Rainfall:

Increased frequency and intensity of rainfall events, with a 20% rise in heavy rainfall from 1980 to 2020, heightening landslide risks.

 

Monitoring tool :

Promoting LHASA to prevent high impact residual area.
