Classification, description, causes and indirect effects : Canadian technical guidelines and best practices related to landslides : a national initiative for loss reduction / D. Cruden and D.F. VanDine.M183-2/7359E-PDF

"The classification system presented herein is based on the WP/WLI classification system with some minor additions and modifications. Readers should note that other landslide classification systems exist, for example, Hungr et al. (2001) proposed a classification system specific to flowtype landslides, and Hungr et al. (2012) proposed another landslide classification system based on Varnes (1978). This contribution also includes a general discussion of landslide size, intensity, travel angles, causes and indirect effects"--Introduction, page [3].
