2026

Graph-based hazard-network analysis of the South Lhonak glacial lake outburst

Ekkirala & Ramesh · Scientific Reports

Traces the 2023 cascade from rainfall and ice avalanche to moraine breach, and identifies dam collapse and downstream flooding as the highest-risk sequence nodes.

2024

IoT-driven microseismic sensing for landslide detection

Indukala et al. · IEEE Access

A distributed microseismic IoT system that detects subsurface movement signatures, enabling early identification of slope-failure precursors.

2024

Landslides: Multi-Hazards Dynamics and Disaster Risk Reduction Through Integrated Participatory Community Approaches

Sudesh Kumar Wadhawan · Journal of the Geological Society of India, Vol. 100, August 2024

Places landslides within a multi-hazard framework with floods and earthquakes. Emphasises community participation, citizen science and crowd-sourced data for early warning, and dynamic risk mapping with IoT, AI/ML and geospatial tools, aligned with the Sendai Framework.

J GSI

A Novel Application of Catchment Approach to Assessment of 2021 Rockfall and Landslide Vulnerabilities in Tirumala Hills, Andhra Pradesh, India

Journal of the Geological Society of India

Analyses sub-basins, drainage patterns and geology after the 2021 extreme rainfall, identifies high-risk zones (especially sub-basin G) and offers a systematic framework for hazard assessment and mitigation planning.

2013

Study of South Lhonak Lake

Dr Remya S. N. · Current Science

The baseline for Amrita’s later analysis of the lake’s 1.6 km expansion before the 2023 outburst.
