Description :
Research into the climatic causes behind the triggering and reactivation of landslides has been carried out in 2 basins in the Southern French Alps, where a great many landslides have occurred over more than a century. This paper highlights the difficulties that may be encountered with respect to the information and the corespondences to which it may give rise and examines the reliability of the causal relationships established. It deals with the limits of the effects of climate.
