Comparison of four kernel functions used in support vector machines for landslide susceptibility mapping: a case study at Suichuan area (China)

Geomatics, Natural Hazards & Risk, 2017
Suichuan is a mountainous area at the Jiangxi province in Central China, where rainfall-induced landslides occur frequently. The purpose of this study is to assess landslide susceptibility of this region using support vector machine (SVM) with four ...

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

Frontiers 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

Eos, Transactions American Geophysical Union, 1987
Active Tectonics is a collection of 16 papers plus a section entitled “Overview and Recommendations.” These papers are meant to serve collectively as a report commissioned by the now defunct Geophysics Research Forum with responsibility passed on to the Geophysics Study Committee, who in turn formed the Panel on Active Tectonics to carry out the task ...

Sea Beam Survey of an Active Strike-Slip Fault: The San Clemente Fault in the California Continental Borderland [PDF]

, 1989
The San Clemente fault, located in the California Continental Borderland, is an active, northwest trending, right-lateral, wrench fault. Sea Beam data are used to map the major tectonic landforms associated with active submarine faulting in detail ...

Active megadetachment beneath the western United States [PDF]

, 2008
Geodetic data, interpreted in light of seismic imaging, seismicity, xenolith studies, and the late Quaternary geologic history of the northern Great Basin, suggest that a subcontinental-scale extensional detachment is localized near the Moho.

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

Frontiers 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.

Accretionary Tectonics of the North American Cordillera [PDF]

, 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 ...

Active tectonics of the Adriatic Region [PDF]

Geophysical 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 ...

Electrical structure of the Himalaya of Central Nepal: high conductivity around the mid-crustal ramp along the MHT [PDF]

, 1999
Twelve broadband magnetotelluric (MT) soundings were performed across the Himalaya of Central Nepal in 1996 in order to determine the electrical structure of the crust and its relation to geological structures and active tectonics.
