Our profile
Our profile
 
 
 
We specialise in HVRAs using high resolution remote sensing data and field-based investigation. Pictured is an example of a part of a regional GLOF risk zonation in the Hindu Kush, Central Asia.
Hazard vulnerability risk assessment
We model and construct hazard and risk scenarios for understanding vulnerability, creating hazard and risk maps, and designing early warning approaches. Pictured is an example of landslide runout modelling to support risk zonation, Argo district, Afghanistan.
Hazard risk scenarios
We develop hazard monitoring and early warning systems - bit it's not just about technology.
Monitoring and early warning
 
Together with DWIDP, landslide risk assessment and prevention measures are assessed for the Jure landslide, Sindhupalchowk, Nepal.
Landslide rockfall risk assessment
We study the relationships between climate change and landslides, putting into practice techniques that assess risks, and provide prevention measures. Pictured is a ground deformation map of a rock slope destabilised as a result of glacial retreat.
Climate change and landslides
We assess risks of mud and debris flow, flash floods and GLOFs, model hazard scenarios and develop monitoring and early warning systems for protecting exposed communities. Pictured is a displacement map of a landslide initiating a debris flow. Measured displacement rate is 1.9 cm per minute.
