Abstract

Heavy rains are very often responsible for extensive mass movements. The aim of this work is to highlight the influence exerted by meteoric events in triggering landslides in Southern Italy. Taking into account the main geomorphological features of the mass movements, simple hydrological/statistical methods are suggested to predict landslide hazard caused by heavy rains.
