The large Tessina complex landslide (rock and debris slump - debris flow) has been active since 1960; an upper zone of accumulation is separated from a larger lower one by a steep minor scarp and a channel. Movements are clearly related to the amount of precipitation and the presence of springs, and secondarily to run-off following seasonal melts. Five topographic maps published between 1948 and 1980 are compared and they reveal the effects of precipitation and of human intervention.

Abstract
The large Tessina complex landslide (rock and debris slump - debris flow) has been active since 1960; an upper zone of accumulation is separated from a larger lower one by a steep minor scarp and a channel. Movements are clearly related to the amount of precipitation and the presence of springs, and secondarily to run-off following seasonal melts. Five topographic maps published between 1948 and 1980 are compared and they reveal the effects of precipitation and of human intervention.File in questo prodotto:
