Fast physically-based probabilistic modelling of rainfall-induced shallow landslide susceptibility at the regional scale considering geotechnical uncertainties and different hydrological conditions

The inherent uncertainty in hydro-geotechnical parameters presents a significant challenge for accurately predicting rainfall-triggered shallow landslides in mountainous regions. In this study, a novel probabilistic framework was developed and implemented in the “Py.GIS-FSLAM-FORM” software, designe...
