Abstract
Many destructive debris flows hit several villages in the Peloritani Mountains area (Sicily, Italy) in October 2009. The collection of several types of spatial data, together with the landslides inventory, allowed the assessment of the landslide susceptibility by the application of two different bivariate techniques.
Furthermore, the susceptibility analysis allowed to state which classes within the different factors, have greater relevance in slope instability and afterwards if some of these can somehow be linked (with a short-medium term incidence) to some of the endogenic processes acting in the area (huge regional uplift, fault activity). Therefore we are able to propose a geomorphologic model of cyclic evolution of the relief in which the endogenic processes are directly linked to the superficial ones.
This work shows just some preliminary results of a greater study that involve the susceptibility analysis and its interpretation in a geodynamics perspective, for the whole southern Calabrian Arc.
