No one needs to be reminded that natural hazards abound. As we well know, areas with unstable geology, for example, are prone to rock falls and landslides, with potentially severe human and economic consequences. Whereas the effects of landslides and subsidence upon communities in mountainous and coastal areas is well known, less well recognised is the danger of unstable terrain to the transport infrastructure across wide areas of Europe.
