Hazard assessment and formation mechanism of debris flow outbursts in a small watershed of the Linxia Basin

open access: yesFrontiers in Earth Science, 2023
The Linxia Basin is located in the transition zone between the Qinghai–Tibet Plateau and the Loess Plateau in China. Collapse–landslide–debris flow geological disasters are particularly prevalent in this region.

Active tectonics of the Adriatic Region [PDF]

open access: yesGeophysical Journal International, 1987
Seismicity and fault-plane solutions show that the active deformation in the Adriatic region is very varied. West of Messina, N–S shortening occurs with slip vectors representative of the overall Africa–Eurasia motion. Along the length of peninsular Italy, NE–SW extension on normal faults is the dominant style of deformation, but changes to N–S ...

Geomorphometry and Statistical Analyses of Landslides Triggered by the 2015 Mw 7.8 Gorkha Earthquake and the Mw 7.3 Aftershock, Nepal

open access: yesFrontiers in Earth Science, 2020
The 2015 Mw 7.8 Gorkha earthquake in Nepal and the Mw 7.3 aftershock triggered at least 22,914 landslides that each had areas ≥500 m2 and lengths and widths ≥20 m. Amongst these landslides, 2,059 had areas >10,000 m2.

Challenges and Opportunities in Multi‐Method Integrated Geophysical Prospection of Buried Building Remains at the Sanctuary of Olympia

open access: yesArchaeological Prospection, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Ancient Olympia was one of the most important sanctuaries and the venue for the Olympic Games in Greek and Roman times. Its remains are located in the Olympia Terrace (Peloponnese, Greece) at the present‐day confluence of the rivers Alpheios and Kladeos at the base of Mount Kronos.

Remote Roca: Integrating Data From Archaeological Survey, Remote Sensing and Geophysics in the Hinterland at the Long‐Lasting Mediterranean Site of Rocavecchia (Apulia, Italy)

open access: yesArchaeological Prospection, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This study presents a multi‐method non‐invasive investigation of an approximately 4‐ha area associated with the long‐occupied coastal settlement of Rocavecchia (Apulia, southern Italy), situated between the prehistoric fortified peninsula and the Hellenistic‐Messapian walls.

Extremely fast Holocene coastal landscape evolution in the Kachchh Upland (NW India): Clues from a multidisciplinary review

open access: yesJournal of Maps, 2023
The coastal landscape of the Kachchh Upland (KU) region (NW-India) changed over the last few thousand years from a shallow marine gulf to a salty desert (1-4 meters asl).

Peroxodisulfate‐Enhanced Leaching of Deep‐Sea Manganese Crusts and Sulfides

open access: yesChemie Ingenieur Technik, EarlyView.
Ammonium peroxodisulfate enables efficient leaching of deep‐sea manganese crusts and massive sulfides while offering electrolytic recycling. High leaching yields for V, Mn, Co, Mo, Sn, and W, along with complete leaching of As and Sb, highlight its potential as a powerful and sustainable oxidant for marine resource processing.

Impact of Multiple Faults on the Maximum Credible Ground-Motion Parameters of Large Earthquakes at a Near-Field Site

open access: yesApplied Sciences
The ground-motion simulation of regional-specific earthquake scenarios is crucial for the seismic design of key facilities. Herein, we considered parameter uncertainty in ground-motion simulations and the impact of multiple faults when determining the ...
