Silver's model defines a landslide as a double-digit popular vote margin. By this definition, the model predicts Harris' chances to achieve this at 1.1 percent, and Trump's at 0.1 percent.
The model worked just as well for landslides as it did for faults. The finding is an important breakthrough suggesting that a model designed for faults can also be used to predict landslide behavior.
The new study, led by UC Santa Cruz geologist Noah Finnegan, used detailed data from two landslide sites in Northern California that researchers have identified and closely monitored for years.
