Landslide Process and Impacts: A Proposed Classification Method [link]Paper  doi  abstract   bibtex   
Various impacts of landslides have increased in past decades due to the rapid growth of urbanization in the developing world. Landslide effects have damaged many aspects of human life and the natural environment, and many difficulties remain for accurate assessments and evaluations. Many investigations by landslide researchers have attempted to achieve a comprehensive view of landslide consequences, however, the lack of further systematic studies have resulted in a limited view. Hence, this study considers an alternative classification theory concerning significant concepts of landslide hazard and risk through the presentation of numerous case studies. This classification method categorizes landslide impacts into two main groups as general and particular, and discusses them in an environmental and socio-economic framework. The findings illustrate that the rate of physical or socio-economic losses critically impact populated regions and civilization centers. This paper attempts to describe a systematic organizational approach in framing landslide impacts in order to more reliably describe and integrate analysis and mitigation measures. [Highlights] [::] We develop a systematic classification in landslide environmental impacts. [::] Numerous landslide losses are described in proposed classification method. [::] The remarkable part of landslide losses are social and economic impacts. [::] Reactivated landslides still had damages on inhabitants despite retaining structures. [::] Urban development multiplies landslide occurrence hence causes more damages or losses.
