Effects of Seismogenic Faults on the Predictive Mapping of Probability to Earthquake-Triggered Landslides

open access: yesISPRS International Journal of Geo-Information, 2019
The seismogenic fault is crucial for spatial prediction of co-seismic landslides, e.g., in logistic regression (LR) analysis considering influence factors.

Mechanism of the Donghekou landslide triggered by the 2008 Wenchuan earthquake revealed by discrete element modeling [PDF]

open access: yesNatural Hazards and Earth System Sciences, 2014
The huge Donghekou landslide was triggered by the Wenchuan earthquake in 2008 with about 2.4 × 107 m3 of rock displaced. The landslide is considered as an example of an earthquake-induced "ejection" event, where dislocated slope materials was expelled ...

Research review and prospects of the 2000 giant Yigong long-runout landslide: Volume, formation mechanism and recurrence period, Tibetan plateau, China

open access: yesFrontiers in Earth Science, 2023
The long-runout landslide is an unusual landslide with great drop height, long sliding distance, large volume, and high velocity, which is characterized by strong kinetic energy, fragmentation and entrainment effect.

Spatio-temporal evolution of intraplate strike-slip faulting: the Neogene-Quaternary Kuh-e-Faghan Fault, Central Iran [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Central Iran provides an ideal region to study the long-term morphotectonic response to the nucleation and propagation of intraplate faulting. In this study, a multidisciplinary approach that integrates structural and stratigraphic field investigations ...

Accretionary Tectonics of the North American Cordillera [PDF]

open access: yes, 1983
Continental geology stands on the threshold of a change that is likely to be as fundamental as plate-tectonic theory was for marine geology. Ongoing seismic-reflection investigations into the deep crustal structure of North America are verifying that ...

Quaternary Landform Development in the Central segment of tectonically active Kachchh Mainland Fault zone, Western India

open access: yesQuaternary Science Advances, 2021
The landform aggradation in an arid climatic region is often regulated by external forces, that provide signatures of climate and tectonic perturbations.
