Basal sliding and plastic deformation of a slow, reactivated landslide in New Zealand

The high-temporal and spatial frequency of the monitoring and the measurement precision of the instruments have allowed new insights into the complex movement patterns of deep-seated, slow moving rockslides. The patterns of movement observed here, and the techniques described to collect and analyse the data, are applicable to many slowly moving landslides in New Zealand, and to those occurring in similar environments worldwide.
