This report contains the results of bibliographic research and numerical simulations aimed to the individuation of a simple and rational procedure to investigate the effects of climate change on the behaviour of slopes in unsaturated pyroclastic soils affected by flowslides. The analysis of a future scenario have been performed using the hand-made code I-MOD3D for the study of seepage processes and stability analysis, firstly validated on a period two years long on the base of in situ suction and rainfall monitoring, using as climatic boundary conditions the results of numerical analysis performed by the climatologic team of C.I.R.A. by using the COSMO-CLM climatic model.
