Relatively little is known about the deep-sea floors around Australia but University of Sydney geology Professor Jock Keene says an alarming picture is emerging. He has just returned from a voyage off northern Australia and says many parts of the ocean floor are made up of steep slopes piled with sediments which are home to methane-producing bacteria. "The gas bubbles sort of have an upward pressure on the mud and sort of expand the mud, and they make it unstable and this leads to submarine landslides," he said. Professor Keene says landslides can be several kilometres long and would be enough to trigger a tsunami.

Recent testing in Italy has shown that the four-tonne Roboclimber can secure slopes without endangering human lives, thanks to innovations from Europe's space programmes. "It was amazing to see how easily this huge robot managed to operate on a very steep slope to secure a rocky mountain wall,” said Guglielmo Berlasso, Director of the Civil Protection Office in the Friuli-Venezia Giulia region in Italy, where the demonstration took place. Landslide in northern Italy Landslides are a big problem in Italy. More than 400 take place each year causing an estimated €1200 million of damage and often deaths. In the 20th century 5939 people were declared dead or missing due to landslides. Alfredo Sandovar from the European Commission was also present at the Roboclimber demonstration and expressed his great satisfaction with the results. “We are aware of the big dimension of this problem which is why we decided to finance this project,” he said.

Clearcut Landslides in Douglas County December 13, 1996 We took an airplane yesterday, flying north west of Roseburg. During our short 1.5 hour flight, we saw literally hundreds of landslides coming from clearcuts and their roads. We saw about 4 natural landslides in forested areas. We couldn't see every natural slide from the plane - but I know for sure, there were not hundreds. There were many, many more landslides from clearcuts. The slopes were just dripping with streaks of mud and slides. The draws and valleys were ripped wide open, and oozing with the displaced soil and rocks. We flew over the Hubbard Creek slide, which killed four people last month. It was not the biggest or most impressive slide we saw. It started high on a vertical slope - skinny, small. We saw it widen, saw the path it took through some old-growth, and saw pieces of the house, and scattered wreckage where it went through the rural residential area. There are no words to describe...
