• Erzincan Havzası’nın Frekans Oranı Yöntemine Göre Heyelan Duyarlılık Analizi (2026) · Afet ve Risk Dergisi · doi

  Landslides are a significant natural hazard that can cause loss of life and property. The Erzincan Basin is prone to landslides due to its geological and geomorphological characteristics. The study faces the challenge of analyzing landslide susceptibility using a limited number of parameters.

• A review of hydrological monitoring and early warning technologies and equipment for geological hazards (2026) · Environmental Earth Sciences · doi

  Traditional monitoring methods ignore the internal hydrological state of the slope. Manual inspections and wired sensor networks have significant challenges, such as high initial costs and difficulties in maintenance. The need for more efficient and reliable monitoring systems that can provide real-time data and adapt to dynamic changes in monitoring requirements.

• Climate change may increase landslide frequency despite generally drier conditions in the Mediterranean area (2026) · Natural hazards and earth system sciences · doi

  The need for a methodological framework to investigate the impacts of climate change on landslide occurrence at the subregional scale. The lack of understanding of the role of antecedent soil moisture in landslide initiation. The need for climate-resilient risk management strategies that account for rainfall pattern variability and antecedent moisture dynamics.
