Impact of extreme rainfall on triggering conditions and susceptibility for shallow landslides: a case study in the Alpes-Maritimes region (France)

Abstract. Prediction of shallow landslides at the regional scale generally relies on statistical analyses of landslide inventories. Rainfall-duration thresholds and susceptibility maps are among the most common approaches to anticipate future landslide occurrences. However, the o...

Imperfect detection and sampling effort shape ground beetle (Carabidae) diversity indicators in large-scale monitoring

Soil biodiversity indicators are increasingly used to inform environmental assessment and policy, yet their robustness is often constrained by heterogeneous sampling designs and imperfect species detection. Surface-active arthropods, such as ground beetles (Carabidae), are widely...
