Source Parameters of the 1906 Manas (Mw 7.7), 1944 Xinyuan (Mw 7.2) and 1812 Nilke Earthquakes and Seismotectonics of the Borohoro Shan, Western China

Tectonics, Volume 45, Issue 6, June 2026.
Abstract The 1906 Manas Earthquake is the largest earthquake recorded in the Borohoro Shan (BRS) since 1900. The reported magnitude ranges from 7.2 to 8.3, but uncertainties remain regarding its size, mechanism, and responsible fault. Similar confusion exists for the 1812 Nilke and 1944 Xinyuan Earthquakes, the only other Mw > 7 earthquakes in the NE ...

Rapid post-earthquake modelling of coseismic landslide intensity and distribution for emergency response decision support [PDF]

Natural Hazards and Earth System Sciences, 2017
Current methods to identify coseismic landslides immediately after an earthquake using optical imagery are too slow to effectively inform emergency response activities.

DeepOT: A Deep Learning Framework for Pixel‐Level Ground Surface Displacement Estimation From SAR Amplitude Imagery

Earth and Space Science, Volume 13, Issue 5, May 2026.
Abstract Monitoring ground surface displacement is critical for understanding geophysical processes and mitigating natural hazards, yet conventional Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) techniques are often limited by decorrelation, complex terrain, and heterogeneous motion.

Disaggregation of Landslide Risk

Earth's Future, Volume 14, Issue 4, April 2026.
Abstract Quantifying and disaggregating landslide risk through probabilistic landslide risk analysis (PLRA) is critical for land use regulation and risk reduction. However, no transferable model for PLRA currently exists that resolves landslide consequences to individual buildings at regional scales.

Fault Friction, Plate Rheology, and Mantle Torques From a Global Dynamic Model of Neotectonics

Journal of Geophysical Research: Solid Earth, Volume 131, Issue 4, April 2026.
Abstract Improvements in software, parallel computing, global data sets, and laboratory flow‐laws help to develop the global Earth5 thin‐shell finite‐element model of Bird et al. (2008, https://doi.org/10.1029/2007jb005460) into a benchmark study. All experiments confirm that modeled faults (other than megathrusts) have low effective friction of 0.085 ±

A Temporal Look at the Influence of Topographic Amplification on Earthquake‐Triggered Landslides in 3D Seismic Simulations

Journal of Geophysical Research: Earth Surface, Volume 131, Issue 4, April 2026.
Abstract Earthquakes are a primary trigger for landslides, often leading to catastrophic consequences. While numerous studies have explored the spatial distribution of earthquake‐triggered landslides, understanding the interaction between seismic waves and topography remains a critical challenge.
