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

This study investigates the effect of incorporating the Devil's Mountain Fault (DMF) and its interaction with the Leech River Valley Fault (LRVF) on the elastic surface deformation hazard in and near the city of Victoria, British Columbia, Canada. Previously, the surface deformation hazard of the region has been characterized by considering the LRVF ...

Erosion rate and previous extent of interior layered deposits on Mars revealed by obstructed landslides [PDF]
We describe interior layered deposits on Mars that have obstructed landslides before undergoing retreat by as much as 2 km. These landslides differ from typical Martian examples in that their toe height increases by as much as 500 m in a distinctive ...

Abstract Landslides pose a serious and ongoing threat to both human lives and infrastructure worldwide; therefore, it is of interest to predict where and when landslides are likely to occur. Advances in machine learning techniques have spurred numerous studies aimed at estimating relative landslide propensity, but are limited to spatial (as opposed to ...

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

Active Tectonics of the Eastern and Southern Alps ‐ Crustal Response to Deep Processes? A Review
Abstract Owing to the low N‐S convergence rates between Adria and Europe, crustal deformation rates in the Alps and its forelands are low. Active tectonics are, therefore, difficult to study, especially as non‐tectonic landscape forming processes can erase or modify the tectonic surface imprint. Large‐scale and dense seismological data recently offered

The effects of normal and shear stress wave phasing on coseismic landslide displacement [PDF]
Predictive models used to assess the magnitude of coseismic landslide strain accumulation inresponse to earthquake ground shaking typically consider slope-parallel ground accelerations only andignore both the influence of coseismic slope-normal ground accelerations and the phase relationshipbetween dynamic slope-normal and slope-parallel accelerations ...

Coseismic landslide susceptibility assessment using geographic information system [PDF]
Indonesia is one of the most earthquake prone countries in the world. More than 14,000 earthquakes of magnitude greater than 5 occurred in Indonesia between 1897 and 2009. Earthquakes are a major cause of slope instability eventually triggering coseismic landslides, which cost 1.5 million US$/ year in Java: one of the most densely islands in Indonesia.

Abstract Routine Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) acquisitions from the Sentinel‐1 constellation enable monitoring of slow surface deformation (millimeters to centimeters per year), yet consistent and accessible pathways for producing validated, user‐ready velocity products remain limited.
