A Regional assessment on the influence of climate change on summer rainfall : an application to shallow landsliding in Wanzhou County, China

This study looks into the future of evolving triggering rainfall conditions in a changing climate, and aims to establish a link to tools in the present to assess shallow landslide susceptibility. Focus is given to the triggering rainfall conditions represented by extreme daily rainfall and mean seas...
