Abstract

Preliminary results of the study of the influence of the mean monthly sum of atmospheric precipitation on landslides in Georgia are presented. In particular, it was found that with an increase in the monthly amount of atmospheric precipitation, there is a linear tendency for an increase in the number of landslides.

Keywords:
Landslide, atmospheric precipitations.
