Microscopic anatomy of tree rings as a source of chronological information for optimizing the determination of landslide hazard

Microscopic anatomy of tree rings as a source of chronological information for optimizing the determination of landslide hazard

The aim of the project is to develop an approach for dating landslide movements from microscopic analysis of annual ring anatomy, calibrate the approach on monitored landslides, add a new approach to supplement the chronology of landslides from historical records and implement it in landslide risk determination methods.
