Thermal influences on spontaneous rock dome exfoliation

Nature Communications, 2018
Thermal triggering of rock exfoliation has long been discounted as relevant to the evolution of rock domes. Here, the authors documented and measured recent fracturing events in California, USA to show that hot summer periods can lead to thermal stresses

How water, temperature, and seismicity control the preconditioning of massive rock slope failure (Hochvogel) [PDF]

Earth Surface Dynamics
The anticipation of massive rock slope failures is a key mitigation strategy in a changing climate and environment requiring a precise understanding of pre-failure process dynamics.

Landslides/Landslide Mitigation [PDF]

, 1992
Abstract Provides a variety of case histories, methodology to help identify, quantify, and mitigate landlsides, and legal cases affecting engineering geology. Part I provides basic information to aid in assessing geologic hazards related to compound landslides, surficial slope failures, and causes of distress to residential construction.

Evaluating post-wildfire debris-flow rainfall thresholds and volume models at the 2020 Grizzly Creek Fire in Glenwood Canyon, Colorado, USA [PDF]

Natural Hazards and Earth System Sciences
As wildfire increases in the western United States, so do postfire debris-flow hazards. The U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) has developed two separate models to estimate (1) rainfall intensity thresholds for postfire debris-flow initiation and (2) debris ...

Bank collapse-landslide failure mechanism of typical reverse rock bank slope in Three Gorges Reservoir area

Shuiwen dizhi gongcheng dizhi
At present, most of the reverse rock slope toppling instability failure is interpreted as a progressive overall instability failure controlled by dip angle and structural plane. However, the phenomenon of leading edge collapse is common in some reservoir

Determining the debris flow yield strength of weathered soils: a case study of the Miryang debris flow in the Republic of Korea

Scientific Reports
Debris flow hazards are often interpreted through back-calculated simulation analysis or empirical methods. The mobility of a debris flow is greatly influenced by mechanical and hydrological parameters. The strength parameters play important roles in the
