The landslides team at the BGS has studied numerous landslides. This work informs our geological maps, memoirs and sheet explanations and provides data for our National Landslide Database, which underpins much of our research. If you’ve seen a landslide or want to contact us about landslides, you can email us at landslides@bgs.ac.uk.
