Preliminary Analysis of Coseismic Landslides Induced by the 1 June 2022 Ms 6.1 Lushan Earthquake, China

open access: yes, 2022
At 17:00 (UTC+8) on 1 June 2022, an Ms 6.1 reverse earthquake struck Lushan County, Ya’an City, Sichuan Province. This earthquake event had a focal depth of 10 km and the epicenter was located at 30.37° N and 102.94° E.

Regional coseismic landslide hazard assessment without historical landslide inventories: A new approach [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Geophysical Research: Earth Surface, 2015
Currently, regional coseismic landslide hazard analyses require comprehensive historical landslide inventories as well as detailed geotechnical data. Consequently, such analyses have not been possible where these data are not available. A new approach is proposed herein to assess coseismic landslide hazard at regional scale for specific earthquake ...

Topographic Controls on the Distribution of Coseismic Landslides: A Case Study Using the Coefficient of Variation of the 2014 Ludian, Yunnan, China, Ms6.5 Earthquake

open access: yesLithosphere, 2022
Identifying the locations of potential landslide areas is fundamental for disaster prevention and mitigation. Considering the close relationship between landslides and geomorphic evolution, a new approach is proposed to predict which areas are prone to ...

Post-earthquake monitoring of landslides along the Southern Kaikōura Transport Corridor, New Zealand

open access: yes, 2021
The magnitude (Mw) 7.8 earthquake that struck North Canterbury on New Zealand’s South Island on the evening of 14 November 2016 caused widespread damage to infrastructure, in particular to road and rail within the South Kaikōura Transport Corridor (SKTC).

Understanding historical earthquakes by mapping coseismic landslides in the Loess Plateau, northwest China

open access: yes, 2022
Locating the epicenters and quantifying the magnitudes of historical earthquakes are important, yet difficult, tasks. These tasks often entail estimating seismic intensities based on written documentation, which suffers from biases and uncertainties that

Coseismic or Landslide? The source of the 2018 Palu Tsunami

open access: yes, 2019
On 28 September, 2018, Indonesia was struck by a 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 shaking ...

Multi‐Hazard Shaking‐Tsunami Fatality Risk Estimation for Coastal Communities

open access: yesEarthquake Engineering &Structural Dynamics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This study develops a multi‐hazard fatality risk model for a coastal community (Tofino) on Vancouver Island, Canada, subjected to earthquake‐tsunami threats from the Cascadia subduction megathrust events. The model incorporates variable population distributions and uncertain fatality rate models, in addition to other key model components, such

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

open access: yesGeophysical 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

Hillslope memory and spatial and temporal distributions of earthquake-induced landslides [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
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 ...
