Incorporating Effects of Slope Units and Sliding Areas into Seismically Induced Landslide Risk Modeling in Tectonically Active Mountainous Areas

open access: yesRemote Sensing
Traditional Newmark models estimate earthquake-induced landslide hazards by calculating permanent displacements exceeding the critical acceleration, which is determined from static factors of safety and hillslope geometries.

Detection of the 2015 Gorkha, Nepal Earthquake-induced Landslide Surface Deformation Using ALOS-2/PALSAR-2 Data [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) is the technique to obtain ground surface images using microwave that is emitted from and received on the antenna. A previous study revealed that landslides were triggered by the 2015 Gorkha, Nepal earthquake at more than 4,

The role of frictional heating in the development of catastrophic landslides [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
In this work, a new thermo-mechanical model is developed by improving on an existing one, applicable to large deep seated landslides and rockslides consisting of a coherent mass sliding on a thin clayey layer.

Landslide mobility and landslide sediment transfer in Val di Sole, eastern Central Alps

open access: yes, 2012
We examine preliminary data from a landslide inventory that combines the mapping of landslides and deep-seated gravitational slope deformations (DSGSDs) in Val di Sole, eastern Central Alps, Italy.

Landslides

open access: yes, 2001
Canada has a wide range of landslides reflecting the diverse geological and geomorphological environments in the nation's landscape. Rock avalanches and rockfalls are extremely rapid landslides that are common in mountainous regions. Debris avalanches and channelized debris flows, typically triggered by heavy rains, form another group of rapid ...
