Sea level pressure (contours, hPa) and geopotential height at 500 hPa (shading, gpm). b Map (region marked as green rectangle in a) of actual landslides recorded during the 2009 event (green; 2014 landslides additionally used to calibrate the landslide model are marked in brown. See Methods for detail). The target region (roughly coinciding with the Feldbach district and referred to as Feldbach region in the following) considered for the landslide assessment is shown as black rectangle (Supplementary Fig. 1).
