We applied dendrochronological analysis to study an extensive (~2.5 km long) complex-type landslide in the Beskid Niski Mountains (Polish Flysch Carpathians), which was rejuvenated in historical time (the earliest transformation occurred in 1913). We used three complementary methods (dating of eccentricity of annual growth rings, eccentricity indices, and analysis of reaction wood), based on seven species of deciduous and coniferous trees. A total of 204 trees were sampled and 408 cores collected using a Pressler increment borer. Based on the dendrochronological analysis, the activity of various parts of the landslide in the past century is presented, which appears to have been diverse and influenced mostly by precipitation. The upper part of the landslide was active from the 1920s until the 1940s. In the middle section of the landslide, intensifications of gravitational movement were repeatedly recorded after intense rainfalls throughout the entirety of the last century. The highest landslide activity was dendrochronologically detected in the 1980s and 1990s. Increasing landslide activity during so-called “dry years” may have been related to quick drying of the bedrock, resulting in changes in rock strength parameters. Our results indicate significant susceptibility of this particular slope-valley geosystem in response to even slight hydrogeological changes (including dryness), which can trigger ground movement.

Forested mountain slopes can be simultaneously affected by soil creep and landslide activity, both of which cause the tilting of tree stems, with the result that their dendrochronological record of tree-ring eccentricity and compression wood is potentially similar. There is a need to identify similarities and differences in these records and thus our research aimed to compare patterns of eccentricity and compression wood developed by trees under the impact of soil creep and landslides. We sampled trees growing on a landslide and creeping slopes in the Kamienne Mts., with 21 Norway spruce trees were sampled on each site. We found several main differences between the dendrochronological record of landslide activity and soil creep. On the landslide we found larger number of dendrochronological events, stronger and more variable eccentricity and a similar number of upslope and downslope events. On creeping slopes, upslope eccentricity events predominate, and the number of eccentricity events dated in all trees increases in time. We also compared the utility of eccentricity and compression wood for dating mass movements. They differ in their sensitivity to stem tilting. Thus, in analyses of landslide activity and soil creep activity, it is recommended to include both wood anatomy features.
