Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Landslides represent a massive threat to our communities and have the potential to cause significant damage to infrastructures. Various efforts are ongoing around the world to identify and mitigate landslides. The current Special Issue aims to combine fundamental work on landside investigation with monitoring and with the development of sustainable, innovative, and cost-effective repair techniques. Any basic work related to the investigation of landslide stressors, such as excessive rainfall and infiltration, is therefore highly encouraged. Advanced investigation and monitoring that cover geophysical techniques, field instrumentation, and remote sensing would also be ideal. Finally, the Special Issue aims to include multiple case studies on innovative landslide repair methods.
You may choose our Joint Special Issue in Geosciences.

Manuscript Submission Information
Manuscripts should be submitted online at www.mdpi.com by registering and logging in to this website. Once you are registered, click here to go to the submission form. Manuscripts can be submitted until the deadline. All submissions that pass pre-check are peer-reviewed. Accepted papers will be published continuously in the journal (as soon as accepted) and will be listed together on the special issue website. Research articles, review articles as well as short communications are invited. For planned papers, a title and short abstract (about 100 words) can be sent to the Editorial Office for announcement on this website.
Submitted manuscripts should not have been published previously, nor be under consideration for publication elsewhere (except conference proceedings papers). All manuscripts are thoroughly refereed through a single-blind peer-review process. A guide for authors and other relevant information for submission of manuscripts is available on the Instructions for Authors page. CivilEng is an international peer-reviewed open access quarterly journal published by MDPI.
Please visit the Instructions for Authors page before submitting a manuscript. The Article Processing Charge (APC) for publication in this open access journal is 1200 CHF (Swiss Francs). Submitted papers should be well formatted and use good English. Authors may use MDPI's English editing service prior to publication or during author revisions.
