In addition, this volume will systematically unify the concepts of vadose zone hydrology and geotechnical engineering, with special emphasis on quantifying ecosystem consequences of storm-triggered landslides in a warmer climate setting. The reader will find a comprehensive coverage of concepts ranging from hillslope hydrology, porous granular material rheology, and the fundamentals of soil properties to state-of-the-art concepts of enhanced hydrological cycle with climate warming, finishing with a discussion of new approaches for future research.Natural disastersClimatic changesGeology, StructuralHydrogeologyAtmospheric scienceSoil scienceSoil conservationNatural Hazardshttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/G32000Climate Change/Climate Change Impactshttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/313000Structural Geologyhttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/G17040Hydrogeologyhttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/G19005Atmospheric Scienceshttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/G36000Soil Science & Conservationhttps://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/U28000Natural disasters.Climatic changes.Geology, Structural.Hydrogeology.Atmospheric science.Soil science.Soil conservation.Natural Hazards.Climate Change/Climate Change Impacts.Structural Geology.Hydrogeology.Atmospheric Sciences.Soil Science & Conservation.55551551.4551.5Ren Diandongauthttp://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/aut1064266BOOK9910299443603321Storm-triggered Landslides in Warmer Climates2537207UNINA
