| Zusammenfassung |
| The paper presents
the impact of irregular rainfall events triggering landslides in the
regional context of landslides in Hungary. The author’s experience,
gathered from decades of observations, confirms that landslide processes
are strongly correlate with precipitation events in all three landscape
types (hill regions of unconsolidated sediments; high bluffs along river
banks and lake shores; mountains of Tertiary stratovolcanoes). Case
studies for each landscape type underline that new landslides are
triggered and old ones are reactivated by extreme winter precipitation
events. This assertion is valid mainly for shallow and translational
slides. Wet autumns favour landsliding, while the triggering influence of
intense summer rainfalls is of a subordinate nature. A recent increasing
problem lies in the fact that on previously unstable slopes, stabilised
during longer dry intervals, an intensive cultivation starts, thus
increasing the damage caused by movements during relatively infrequent wet
winters. |
