Helicopter footage shows the landslide scar in the perspective of the river valley. The comments associated with this film indicate that two typhoons preceded this events.
Theory
A landslide is a mass movement along a failure plane on a slope. Landslides occur when the stability threshold of a slope is overcome. The trigger can be abrupt, like an earthquake or more gradual due to a number of factors including:
- porewater pressure built up due to extensive rainfall, snow of glacier melt.
- undercutting of a slope by a river or wave erosion.
Fires and deforestation that change the water infiltration capacity of a slope do influence the probability of a landslide event happening.
