Abstract

The main results of recent activities on IPL210 Project summarize rainfall event, rainfall-induced landslides and their characteristics including type of movement, type of material involved and state of activity in two different regions in Serbia both affected by same extreme rainfall event in May 2014. In both regions dominant type of movement was sliding, but with different ratio between debris and soil as material involved. The analysis showed that there are no significant differences between first activated and reactivated landslides if two regions are compared.
