Explanation:
Landslides pose a major hazard to life and infrastructure, affecting around 12 percent of the world’s population who live in mountain ranges. In addition to the direct hazard they pose, landslides are the primary source of sediment in mountain ranges, with significant knock-on effects on river, floodplain, and estuarine systems, as well as playing an important role in global biogeochemical cycles.
“The consequences of landslides are therefore wide-reaching, so it’s vital that we get a better understanding of how they may evolve under future climate conditions.”
