Geotechnical and geological Responses to climate change: Exchanging Approaches and Technologies on a world-wide scale (GREAT)
Start date: Jan 1, 2014, End date: Dec 31, 2017,
"GREAT will focus on the geotechnical and geological response to the global challenge of climate change. It aims to promote sharing of mitigation and adaptation strategies on a world-wide scale by involving 5 major European institutions and 6 ICPC institutions from three BRICS countries (China, India, and Brazil). The goal is to facilitate access of Europe to research and innovation carried out in ...

Effects of wetting and drying cycles on landslide activity (Wandland)
Start date: Jun 1, 2010, End date: May 31, 2013,
The project aims to improve the capabilities to predict the occurrence of landslide crisis episodes. The research activities focus on the changes in the stability conditions of natural slopes when subjected to wet/dry cycling. Soil properties can undergo strong modifications as a consequence of cyclic variations in the degree of saturation, which can lead to a reduction of the available shearing r ...

Living with landslide risk in Europe: Assessment, effects of global change, and risk management strategies (SAFELAND)
Start date: May 1, 2009, End date: Apr 30, 2012,
SafeLand will develop generic quantitative risk assessment and management tools and strategies for landslides at local, regional, European and societal scales and establish the baseline for the risk associated with landslides in Europe, to improve our ability to forecast landslide hazard and detect hazard and risk zones. The scientific work packages in SafeLand are organised in five Areas: Area 1 ...
