Short summary
After a major earthquake struck near the Türkiye/Syria border in February 2023, a powerful storm brought intense rainfall to the region, triggering additional landslides. We used satellite data and a physics-based model to map probabilistic landslide hazard using both coseismic and hydrologic drivers. We also explored how the sequence of these disasters affected landslide risk. Finally, we offer a method for seasonal forecasting of landslide hazard in at-risk areas using the historic climate.
