Description: 2004, 317 p. ISBN: 90 5809 598 3 Subject: Landslides, Risk assessment, Hazard analysis, Geology, Summary: This book is specifically dedicated to the impact of large landslides in the mountainous environment

in terms of identification and assessment of risk. A methodology carried out for the determination of hazard, vulnerability and finally, risk, is presented, with some practical applications to large landslide cases located in the Alps. The context, derived from the first results of the project IMIRILAND, is supported by the EU within the fifth framework programme.
