The effects of climate change have the potential to impact slope stability. Negative impacts are expected to be greatest at high northerly latitudes where degradation of permafrost in rock and soil, debuttressing of slopes as a result of glacial retreat, and changes in ocean ice-cover are likely to increase the susceptibility of slopes to landslides. In the United States, the greatest increases in air temperature and precipitation are expected to occur in Alaska. In order to assess the impact that these environmental changes will have on landslide size (magnitude), mobility, and frequency, inventories of historical landslides are needed. These inventories provide baseline data that can be used to identify changes...

These GIS grids were produced from NOAA and NRCC precipitation frequency estimates for North America based on precipitation data collected from 1816 to 2014. The grids provide estimated rainfall data for 2-, 5-, 10-, 25-, 50-, 100-, 20-0, and 500-year recurrence periods for a 24-hour duration. Grid value units are inches * 1000.
