Data sets

Hydrogeological data of groundwater and precipitation monitored in the Vögelsberg landslide catchment (1.0) J. Pfeiffer, T. Zieher, J. Schmieder, T. Bogaard, M. Rutzinger, and C. Spötl https://doi.org/10.5281/zenodo.5817141

Short summary

The activity of slow-moving deep-seated landslides is commonly governed by pore pressure variations within the shear zone. Groundwater recharge as a consequence of precipitation therefore is a process regulating the activity of landslides. In this context, we present a highly automated geo-statistical approach to spatially assess groundwater recharge controlling the velocity of a deep-seated landslide in Tyrol, Austria.
