Abstract

In the flat western part of the region and near the Caucasus Mineralnye Vody Region, considerable activation of these processes occurs mainly at the expense of climatic conditions and engineering activity. The set of landslide activation factors and extent of their influence on landslide activity differ from year to year. In the last 10 years, the highest landslide activity occurred in 2005 and 2006, the lowest – in 2013. In the period 1992–2015, the largest amount of emergency situations related to landslides occurred in the Kochubeevsky and Andropov Districts (both were 23% of the total number), cities of Stavropol (19%) and Pyatigorsk (15%). Landslide events are most frequent in the spring – summer period (80% of the total number), especially May (30%).
