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

, 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 ...

Impacts of surface fault rupture on residential structures during the 2016 Mw 7.8 Kaikōura earthquake, New Zealand [PDF]

, 2019
Areas that experience permanent ground deformation in earthquakes (e.g., surface fault rupture, slope failure, and/or liquefaction) typically sustain greater damage and loss compared to areas that experience strong ground shaking alone.

Overestimation of the earthquake hazard along the Himalaya: constraints in bracketing of medieval earthquakes from paleoseismic studies

Geoscience Letters, 2017
The Himalaya is one of the most seismically active regions of the world. The occurrence of several large magnitude earthquakes viz. 1905 Kangra earthquake (Mw 7.8), 1934 Bihar–Nepal earthquake (Mw 8.2), 1950 Assam earthquake (Mw 8.4), 2005 Kashmir (Mw 7 ...

Changes in hot spring temperature and hydrogeology of the Alpine Fault hanging wall, New Zealand, induced by distal South Island earthquakes [PDF]

, 2014
Thermal springs in the Southern Alps, New Zealand, originate through penetration of fluids into a thermal anomaly generated by rapid uplift and exhumation on the Alpine Fault.

Pseudotachylytes and Earthquake Source Mechanics

, 2009
Destructive earthquakes nucleate at depth (10 to 15 km), therefore monitoring active faults at the Earth’s surface, or interpreting seismic waves, yields only limited information on earthquake mechanics.

Surface Fault Ruptures Associated with the 1995 Hyogoken-Nanbu Earthquake.

Journal of Geography (Chigaku Zasshi), 1995
Distinctive ruptures of the surface faulting which generated the destructive 1995 Hyogoken-Nanbu Earthquake (Ms=7.2) appeared along the Nojima fault, an active fault on the northwestern coast of Awaji island, Japan. The surface fault ruptures in Awaji island extend southwestward continuously for about 9km from Easki near the epicenter to Toshima in ...

Important earthquakes in Southem Appennines, ltaly [PDF]

, 1988
How the soil reacts when it's subjected to an earthquake is a fact that cannot be omitted in planning. The research of these phenomena lets to locate seismogenetie areas and to define the different structural elements that feature regional and 10ca1 ...
