Slow-creeping landslides may fail catastrophically, posing significant threats to infrastructure and lives. Landslides weaken over time through rock mass damage processes that may occur by slow steady-state creep or transient accelerations of slip, called creep bursts. Creep bursts may control landslide stability by inducing short-term damage and strain localization. This study focuses on the Åknes landslide in Norway, which moves up to 6 centimetres per year and could potentially trigger a large tsunami in the fjord lying below. Here, an eleven-year dataset is compiled and analyzed, including kinematic, seismic, and hydrogeological data acquired at the landslide surface and in a series of boreholes. Creep bursts with millimetre amplitude are detected in the landslide’s shear zone. An annual average of two creep burst events have been recorded within the shear zone in each borehole, accounting for approximately 11% of the total displacement. Creep bursts phased over multiple boreholes are preceded by increased seismic activity and water pressure increase. However, most creep bursts are observed in only one or a few boreholes. Creep bursts often occur during the seasonal high and low levels of groundwater, correlating with local peaks in water pressure, but no such correlation is observed during summer. We propose that on one side, the progressive wear of asperities leads to creep bursts being uncorrelated to water pressure changes. Conversely, enhanced stress corrosion causes creep bursts to correlate to water level fluctuations. Our findings offer unique insights into landslide mechanics, correlating shear zone dynamics with surface displacement and environmental parameters.
