Coseismic Debris Remains in the Orogen Despite a Decade of Enhanced Landsliding

Geophysical Research Letters, 2021
AbstractMajor earthquakes in steep orogens can trigger extensive landsliding. Most of the landslide bodies come to rest high on the slopes, but subsequent rainfalls can easily remobilize them. Sharp peaks in landslide rates are systematically observed after major earthquakes, followed by rapid decays to background levels in just several years. Yet, the

Analysis of the Controlling Effect of Excess Topography on the Distribution of Coseismic Landslides during the Iburi Earthquake, Japan, on 6 September 2018

Remote Sensing, 2023
Coseismic landslides cause changes in the hillside material, and this erosion process plays an important role in the evolution of the topography. Previous studies seldom involved research on the influence of excess topography on the occurrences of ...

Landslide susceptibility mapping using multi-criteria evaluation techniques in Chittagong Metropolitan Area, Bangladesh [PDF]

, 2015
Landslides are a common hazard in the highly urbanized hilly areas in Chittagong Metropolitan Area (CMA), Bangladesh. The main cause of the landslides is torrential rain in short period of time.

The Progressive Development and Post-failure Behaviour of Deep-seated Landslide Complexes [PDF]

, 2011
The concept of progressive shear surface development remains to be fully understood. This study aims to investigate the mechanisms of progressive shear surface development to failure, and the subsequent post-failure behaviour, of deep-seated landslide ...

Characteristics of landslides triggered by the 2013 M L6.5 Nantou, Taiwan, earthquake

Earth, Planets and Space, 2022
Earthquake-triggered landslides are common disasters of active mountain belts. Due to the lack of earthquake-triggered landslide inventory in Taiwan, it is not intuitive to observe spatial relationships and discover unique patterns between landslides and

Quantitative landslide susceptibility assessment of the Waikato region using GIS [PDF]

, 2010
Areas that have experienced landslide events in the past and the conditioning factors present at these sites can be used to identify areas of the same or similar susceptibility.

Rapid post-earthquake modelling of coseismic landslide intensity and distribution for emergency response decision support [PDF]

Natural Hazards and Earth System Sciences, 2017
Current methods to identify coseismic landslides immediately after an earthquake using optical imagery are too slow to effectively inform emergency response activities.
