Evidence exists that the statistics of landslides triggered by extreme natural events exhibit a “universal” behaviour, where for increasing landslide area, the frequency of landslides increases to a maximum value and then decreases following a power law. This allows us to make quantitative comparisons of populations of triggered landslide events obtained from landslide inventory maps. We first discuss the characteristics and limitations of landslide inventory maps, followed by a presentation of three recent landslide event inventories in central and northern Italy. For each inventory, we calculate the probability and frequency densities of landslide areas, compare these results to each other and with the “universal” landslide distribution, and finally estimate each inventory’s landslide event magnitude.
