Mapping coseismic landslide damaged buildings during the 2008 Wenchuan Earthquake in rural mountainous area [PDF]
Determining the location of coseismic landslides damaged buildings is critical to the understanding of human losses from earthquake-induced landslides during major earthquakes in mountainous regions.

Evaluation of coseismic landslide hazard on the proposed Haast-Hollyford Highway, South Island, New Zealand [PDF]
Coseismic landsliding presents a major hazard to infrastructure in mountains during large earthquakes. This is particularly true for road networks, as historically coseismic landsliding has resulted in road losses larger than those due to ground shaking.
