Liquefaction phenomena associated with the Emilia earthquake sequence of May–June 2012 (Northern Italy) [PDF]
In this paper we present the geological effects induced by the 2012 Emilia seismic sequence in the Po Plain. Extensive liquefaction phenomena were observed over an area of ~ 1200 km2 following the 20 May, ML 5.9 and 29 May, ML 5.8 mainshocks; both ...

Assessing Susceptibility to Soil Liquefaction Using the Standard Penetration Test (SPT)—A Case Study from the City of Portoviejo, Coastal Ecuador [PDF]
The city of Portoviejo in coastal Ecuador was severely affected during the 16 April 2016, Pedernales earthquake (Mw 7.8). Various coseismic liquefaction phenomena occurred, inducing lateral spreading, sand boils, ground subsidence, and sinkholes in soils

Quaternary faulting in the central Paris basin: Evidence for coseismic rupture and liquefaction
We describe new evidence of Quaternary faulting observable in large outcrop exposures (trenches and carries) near Romilly-sur-Seine in the centre of Paris basin. Coeval normal or reverse faults affect sand, marl and gravel units that also expose liquefaction features.

Fluidized landslides triggered by the liquefaction of subsurface volcanic deposits during the 2018 Iburi-Tobu earthquake, Hokkaido [PDF]
The 6.6 M-w Iburi-Tobu earthquake struck southern Hokkaido, Japan on 6 September 2018. The earthquake triggered widespread slope collapses in the hills near the epicenter, resulting in destructive landslides that killed 36 people.
