Answer 2

Answer:

Many of the rainfall-induced landslides occurring all over the world are shallow-type; namely, the sliding surface is located at a depth from a few decimeters to some meters. They generally occur in response to prolonged intense rainfall events and involve either residual weathered soils or transported colluvial deposits. This type of landslides represents a widespread hazard that frequently results in considerable damage to infrastructure and human losses in many mountainous regions of the world, especially in areas characterized by the widespread presence of natural (e.g., [1–3]) and/or human-reworked soil cover (e.g., [4–6]). For this reason, in recent years great efforts are being made to improve the assessment of the temporal and spatial occurrence of rainfall-induced shallow landslides, especially through physically based models
