             abstract = "In Brazil, plantations of exotic species such as Eucalyptus have 
                         expanded substantially in recent years, due in large part to the 
                         great demand for cellulose and wood. The combination of the steep 
                         slopes in some of these regions, such as the municipalities 
                         located close to the Serra do Mar and Serra da Mantiqueira, and 
                         the soil exposure that occurs in some stages in the Eucalyptus 
                         cultivation cycle, can cause landslides. The use of a geographic 
                         information system (GIS) assists with the identification of areas 
                         that are susceptible to landslides, and one of the GIS tools used 
                         is the spatial inference technique. In this work, the landslide 
                         susceptibility of areas occupied by Eucalyptus plantations in 
                         different stages of development in municipalities in the state of 
                         S{\~a}o Paulo was examined. Eight thematic maps were used, and, 
                         the fuzzy gamma technique was used for data integration and the 
                         generation of susceptibility maps, in which scenarios were created 
                         with different gamma values for the dry and rainy seasons. The 
                         results for areas planted with Eucalyptus were compared with those 
                         obtained for other land uses and covers. In the moderate and high 
                         susceptibility classes, the pasture is the land use type that 
                         presented the greatest susceptibility, followed by new Eucalyptus 
                         plantations and urban areas.",
