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 ...

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.

Abstract Monitoring ground surface displacement is critical for understanding geophysical processes and mitigating natural hazards, yet conventional Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) techniques are often limited by decorrelation, complex terrain, and heterogeneous motion.

Hillslope memory and spatial and temporal distributions of earthquake-induced landslides [PDF]
Large earthquakes commonly trigger widespread and destructive landsliding. However, current approaches to modeling regional-scale landslide activity do not account for the temporal evolution of progressive failure in brittle hillslope materials ...

Disaggregation of Landslide Risk
Abstract Quantifying and disaggregating landslide risk through probabilistic landslide risk analysis (PLRA) is critical for land use regulation and risk reduction. However, no transferable model for PLRA currently exists that resolves landslide consequences to individual buildings at regional scales.

Fault Friction, Plate Rheology, and Mantle Torques From a Global Dynamic Model of Neotectonics
Abstract Improvements in software, parallel computing, global data sets, and laboratory flow‐laws help to develop the global Earth5 thin‐shell finite‐element model of Bird et al. (2008, https://doi.org/10.1029/2007jb005460) into a benchmark study. All experiments confirm that modeled faults (other than megathrusts) have low effective friction of 0.085 ±

Earthquake ground motion often triggers landslides in mountainous areas. A simple, robust method to quickly evaluate the terrain’s susceptibility of specific locations to earthquake-triggered landslides is important for planning field reconnaissance and ...

Abstract Earthquakes are a primary trigger for landslides, often leading to catastrophic consequences. While numerous studies have explored the spatial distribution of earthquake‐triggered landslides, understanding the interaction between seismic waves and topography remains a critical challenge.

Abstract Large earthquakes along the Tibetan Plateau margins trigger widespread landslides that deliver substantial sediment to river networks, driving intense and long‐lasting landscape change. However, identifying and modeling the fluvial sediment responses to large earthquakes remains challenging.

Abstract Bedrock fault scarps and their associated colluvial wedges provide key evidence for reconstructing paleoearthquakes. We apply rock surface luminescence dating to a bedrock scarp on the Huashan fault in central China, using OSL‐depth profiles (DPs) from multiple heights. Results reveal two coseismic displacements of 6.8 and >1.0 m.
