The relationships between large complex landslides and tectonic structures are examined.
•
Landslides develop along lines of weakness and failure surfaces caused by tectonics.
•
Tectonics cause topographic growth and over-steepening of the slopes.
•
Tectonics exert an active and passive role on landslide distribution and type.
•
Landslides may be an indicator of regional-scale, well-constrained tectonic processes.
