Cover Caption: Deployment of a large-scale seismic nodal array at the Cuolm da Vi slope instability, one of the largest active landslides in the Alps (Graubünden, Switzerland). Over 1,000 seismic nodes were installed alongside 6 km of fiber-optic cable, enabling Distributed Acoustic and Strain Sensing measurements. This long-term ETH project aims to characterize the internal structure of the unstable slope and monitor its subsurface dynamics over time. The integrated network enables landslide characterization and monitoring across a wide range of scales: from meters to kilometers, and milliseconds to years. Credit: Tjeerd Kiers
