This list of landslides is a list of notable landslides and mudflows divided into sections by date and type. This list may be incomplete as there is no central catalogue for landslides, although it does exist for some for individual countries or areas. Volumes of landslides are recorded in the scientific literature using cubic kilometres (km3) for the largest and millions of cubic metres (MCM) for most events.
Prehistoric landslides Note: km3 = cubic kilometre(s)
Submarine landslides Note: MCM = million cubic metres; km3 = cubic kilometre(s)
Pre-20th-century historic landslides Note: km3 = cubic kilometre(s); MCM = million cubic metres
20th-century landslides
1901–1950 Note: km3 = cubic kilometre(s); MCM = million cubic metres
1951–1975 Note: km3 = cubic kilometre(s); MCM = million cubic metres
1976–2000 Note: MCM = million cubic metres
21st-century landslides
2001–2010 Note: m3 = cubic metre(s); MCM = million cubic metres
2011–2020 Note: MCM = million cubic metres
2021–present Note: MCM = million cubic metres
Ongoing landslides Note: MCM = million cubic metres
