These numbers have surged in the last decade alone. It is said that natural disasters have affected over 3 billion lives, killed on average 750,000 people, and cost more than 600 billion US dollars. Of these numbers, a greater proportion are due to sediment-related disasters, and these numbers are an indication of the amount of work still to be done in the field of soil erosion, conservation, and landslides. Scientists, engineers, and planners are all under immense pressure to develop and improve existing scientific tools to model erosion and landslides and, in the process, better conserve the soil. Therefore, the purpose of this Special Issue is to improve our knowledge on the processes and mechanics of soil erosion and landslides. In turn, these will be crucial in developing the right tools and models for soil and water conservation, disaster mitigation, and early warning systems.Technology: general issuesbicsscEnvironmental science, engineering & technologybicssclandslideimage classificationspectrum similarity analysisextreme rainfall-induced landslide susceptibility modellandslide ratio-based logistic regressionlandslide evolutionTyphoon MorakotTaiwanvegetation communityvegetation importance valueroot systemsoil erosiongrey correlation analysissediment yieldRUSLELancang-Mekong River basinrainfall thresholdlandslide probability modeldebris flowZechawa Gullymitigation countermeasuresJiuzhaigou Valleywater erosionsusceptibilityGaussian processclimate changeradial basis function kernelweighted subspace random forestextreme eventsextreme weathernaive Bayesfeature selectionmachine learninghydrologic modelsimulated annealingearth system sciencePSED ModelloessICUstatic liquefactionmechanical behaviorpore structurealpine swamp meadowalpine meadowdegradation of riparian vegetationroot distributiontensile strengthtensile cracksoil managementland cover changesSyriahillslopesgully erosionvegetation restorationsoil erodibilityland usebridge pieroverfallscourlandform change impact on piershallow water equationswet-dry frontoutburst floodTVD-schemeMUSCL-Hancock methodlaboratory model testextreme rainfallrill erosionshallow landslidesdeep lip surfacesafety factorrainfall erosivity factorUSLE RDeep Neural Networktree ringdendrogeomorphologylandslide activitydeciduous broadleaved treeShirakami Mountainsspatiotemporal cluster analysislandslide hotspotsdam breachseepageovertoppingseismic signalflume testbreach modelTechnology: general issuesEnvironmental science, engineering & technologyChen Su-Chinedt1326297Chen Su-ChinothBOOK9910566467403321Soil-Water Conservation, Erosion, and Landslide3037278UNINA
