Exploratory relationships between selected ground motion parameters and coseismic landslides: A case study of the 2017 Jiuzhaigou MW6.5 earthquake

Engineering Geology
Ground motion, one of the key parameters in controlling coseismic landslides, has long been treated as a scalar in the regional earthquake landslide analysis, which is apparently not sufficient for understanding coseismic landslide hazards.

Secondary Hazards Associated with Coseismic Landslide

2012
Landslide hazards induced by earthquakes are classified into a primary hazard and a secondary hazard from temporal and spatial viewpoints of damages. Working Group 3 (WG-3) of the Earthquake-induced Landslides Research Projects comprehensively investigated the secondary hazards associated with coseismic landslide. First of all, we provided a definition

The 2018 Palu Tsunami: Coeval Landslide and Coseismic Sources

Seismological Research Letters, 2020
AbstractOn 28 September 2018, Indonesia was struck by an MW 7.5 strike-slip earthquake. An unexpected tsunami followed, inundating nearby coastlines leading to extensive damage. Given the traditionally non-tsunamigenic mechanism, it is important to ascertain if the source of the tsunami is indeed from coseismic deformation, or something else, such as ...

Classification of Coseismic Landslides Using Fuzzy and Machine Learning Techniques

2020
Seismically generated landslides represent one of the most damaging hazards associated with earthquakes in countries with high seismicity. The delineation of prone to coseismic landsliding areas is crucial in order to predict the occurrence of earthquake-induced landslides and consequently reduce the relevant risk.

Regression models for estimating coseismic landslide displacement

Engineering Geology, 2007
Newmark's sliding-block model is widely used to estimate coseismic slope performance. Early efforts to develop simple regression models to estimate Newmark displacement were based on analysis of the small number of strong-motion records then available. The current availability of a much larger set of strong-motion records dictates that these regression

Development of the coseismic landslide susceptibility map of the island of Lefkada, Greece

Environmental Earth Sciences, 2021
The island of Lefkada, Greece periodically suffered environmental and structural damages induced by earthquakes. During the twenty-first century, two moderate events of magnitude M > 6 occurred in 2003 and 2015 (M6.2 and M6.5, respectively). The dominant type of the earthquake-induced environmental failures was rock falls and slides that were ...

Lichen dating of coseismic landslide hazards in alpine mountains

Geomorphology, 1994
Abstract Studies of rockfalls and block slides provide insight about seismic shaking hazards in alpine mountains subject to earthquakes. Large samples of the longest axis of the largest lichen on each block can be used to identify regional landslide events; lichen-size distributions for many sites cluster consistenly at the same sizes.

GIS-based evaluation on the fault motion-induced coseismic landslides

Journal of Mountain Science, 2012
Earthquake-induced potential landslides are commonly estimated using landslide susceptibility maps. Nevertheless, the fault location is not identified and the ground motion caused by it is unavailable in the map. Thus, potential coseismic landslides for a specific fault motion-induced earthquake could not be predicted using the map. It is meaningful to

A Conceptual Event-Tree Model for Coseismic Landslide Dam Hazard Assessment

2014
Earthquakes may trigger a series of multiple cascading geohazard phenomena. For example, coseismic landslides may block rivers and form landslide dams, which occur frequently in tectonically active mountains with narrow and steep valleys. The catastrophic release of water masses from landslide-impounded lakes is capable to produce outburst floods and ...
