Social impacts caused by floods and landslides in Portugal the period of 1865–2010 are gathered DISASTER database. This database contains 1,902 hydro‐geomorphologic cases that 1,248 fatalities (81% 19% associated with landslides, respectively). The use allowed for: (i) analysis frequency temporal evolution fatal landslides; (ii) spatio‐temporal distribution fatalities; (iii) identification most deadly flood landside types; (iv) verification gender tendencies mortalities; (v) evaluation...
Abstract. This work proposes a comprehensive method to assess rainfall thresholds for landslide initiation using centenary database associated with single daily data set. The is applied the Lisbon region and includes return period analysis that was used identify critical combination (cumulated duration) related each event. spatial representativeness of reference rain gauge evaluated are assessed calibrated receiver operating characteristic (ROC) metrics. Results show events located up 10 km...
