Comments on Landslide Occurrence under Changing Climate in Earthquake-prone Cordillera Blanca, Peru

Popis výsledku v původním jazyce

Landslides are among the major landscape formingnprocesses in mountain regions like the Cordillera Blancanin the Ancash region, Peru. They include a wide varietynof types with specific movement dynamics ranging fromnslow-moving landslides to debris flows and extremelynrapid ice-rock avalanches. They are commonly triggerednby extreme precipitation and temperature drivennprocesses. Climatological analyses in the CordilleranBlanca suggest a warming trend in the 20th and early 21stncenturies, resulting in accelerated glacier ice loss that altersnthe slope stability conditions. Regardless of the scenarionconsidered, climate predictions agree on the continuationnof warming, which may be especially profound in thenhighest altitudes (> 5000 m a.s.l.). Besides the climatedrivennlandslides, historical earthquakes triggered a largennumber of landslides, ranking among the most frequentnlandslide trigger in the region. In addition, the seismicneffects on rocks may set more favorable preconditions fornfuture landslides. However, the predictability of a strongnearthquake occurrence is limited. Under such complexnnatural conditions and landslide hazard drivers, it isnimportant to keep in mind that future landslide risk couldnalso be managed by lowering exposure and vulnerabilitynof possibly affected communities. Mitigation of thesenrisk components entirely depends on our (i.e., human)ndecisions. Therefore, our contemporary decisions willnlargely determine future landslide risk, which underlinesnour responsibility for future landslide disaster occurrence.
