Seismic landslide hazard assessment using improved seismic motion parameters of the 2017 Ms 7.0 Jiuzhaigou earthquake, Tibetan Plateau

Frontiers in Earth Science
Seismic landslide hazard assessment plays a very important guiding role during urgent earthquake relief. In August 2017, an Ms 7.0 earthquake in Jiuzhaigou County, Sichuan Province, China, triggered thousands of landslides.

Fatal landslides in Europe

, 2016
Landslides are a major hazard causing human and large economic losses worldwide. However, the quantification of fatalities and casualties is highly underestimated and incomplete, thus, the estimation of landslide risk is rather ambitious. Hence, a spatio-

Regional seismic topographic effects and seismic landslide hazard assessment during the 2023 Ms 6.2 Jishishan earthquake in Gansu, China

Zhongguo dizhi zaihai yu fangzhi xuebao
On December 18, 2023, the Ms 6.2 Jishishan earthquake in Gansu Province triggered widespread landslides, collapses, and slope failures. Recent seismological studies indicate that the event was caused by an east-dipping fault rupture. The extensive ground

Quantifying the influence of topographic amplification on the landslides triggered by the 2015 Gorkha earthquake

Communications Earth & Environment
Topographic amplification is caused by the interaction between seismic waves and rough terrains. It increases shaking levels on hilltops and could lead stable slopes to the brink of failure.
