Prediction of total landslide volume in watershed scale under rainfall events using a probability model
This study established a probability model based on the landslide spatial and size probabilities to predict the possible volume and locations of landslides in watershed scale under rainfall events. First, we assessed the landslide spatial probability using a random forest landslide susceptibility mo...
