This presentation was based on the analysis of different types of data recorded to provide monthly time series related to climate (rainfall, wet days, rainfall intensity and temperature) from 1877 to 2008, in order to verify the relationship between climate changes and landslide occurrence in Apulia region. Despite the decreasing trend of rainfall and rainfall intensity and the increasing trend of temperatures and wet days, there is an increasing trend of landslide occurrence, highlighting the negative effect of anthropogenic activities in landslide-prone areas.
