Invited perspectives: Integrating hydrologic information into the next generation of landslide early warning systems by B. B. Mirus, B. B. Mirus, T. Bogaard, R. Greco, M. Stähli

“…We propose that the greatest opportunity for improvement is through a measure-and-model approach to develop an understanding of landslide hydro-climatology that accounts for local controls on subsurface storage dynamics. Additionally, new efforts focused on the subsurface hydrology are complementary to existing rainfall-based methods, so leveraging these with near-term precipitation forecasts is a priority for increasing lead times.…”
