Landscape Signature of Seismogenic Faults in the Off and Onshore Domains of the Noto Peninsula in Japan's Back‐Arc

Geophysical Research Letters, Volume 52, Issue 24, 28 December 2025.
Abstract The eastern margin of the Sea of Japan is a zone of great seismic and tsunami hazard due to multiple offshore and nearshore reverse faults as shown by the 2024 Mw ${M}_{\mathrm{w}}$ 7.5 Noto Peninsula Earthquake. Here we compare coseismic deformation of the 2024 Noto Peninsula Earthquake with 4,767 individual marine terraces attributed to 16 ...

Influence of Structural Maturity on the Rupture Morphology of the Northern Alpine Fault, Aotearoa New Zealand

Journal of Geophysical Research: Solid Earth, Volume 130, Issue 12, December 2025.
Abstract The Alpine Fault (AF) in Aotearoa New Zealand is a fast‐slipping plate boundary fault late in its seismic cycle that presents a major source of seismic hazard. Past earthquakes have created a structural‐geomorphic record of surface ruptures that we map and analyze for the northern AF using 1,000 km2 ${\text{km}}^{2}$ of Light Detection and ...

An integrated SEM-Newmark model for physics-based regional coseismic landslide assessment

, 2020
Earthquake-induced landslides are one of the most catastrophic effects of earthquakes, as evidenced by many historic events over the past decades, such as the 1994 Northridge earthquake in California and the 2008 Wenchuan earthquake in China.

Tsunami Potential and Scaling Characteristics of Rotational Submarine Landslides in the Eastern Margin of the Sea of Japan

Journal of Geophysical Research: Oceans, Volume 130, Issue 12, December 2025.
Abstract This study evaluates the tsunami generation potential and scaling characteristics of rotational submarine landslides along the eastern margin of the Sea of Japan, where many submarine active faults and fine‐grained sediments are distributed. These landslides pose significant tsunami hazards, but their locations and magnitudes are difficult to ...

Multimodal method for landslide risk analysis

MethodsX, 2019
Quantitative landslide risk analysis is a key step in creating appropriate land use policies. However, regional scale landslide hazard and risk studies are traditionally based on a single, infinite-slope style of failure, belying the differing ...

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.
