This paper relates landslide inventories to erosion rates and provides quantitative estimates of the landslide hazard associated with earthquakes. We do this by utilizing a three-parameter inverse-gamma distribution, which fits the frequencyaaaarea statistics of three substantially aaacompleteaaa landslide-event inventories. A consequence of this general distribution is that a landslide-event magnitude m_L
