Spatiotemporal evolution, mineralogical composition, and transport mechanisms of long-runout landslides in Valles Marineris, Mars [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
Long-runout landslides with transport distances of >50 km are ubiquitous in Valles Marineris (VM), yet the transport mechanisms remain poorly understood.

Construction of three-dimensional model and stability analysis of dangerous rock mass based on nap-of-the-object photogrammetry and LiDAR technology

open access: yesShuiwen dizhi gongcheng dizhi
The collapse of high-steep dangerous rock is a common geological disaster in the mountainous areas of China. However, due to the limitation of objective factors such as traffic difficulties, the efficiency of artificial geological exploration is low and ...

Earthquake‐induced landslide scenarios for seismic microzonation. Application to the Accumoli area (Rieti, Italy) [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
Scenarios of earthquake-induced landslides are necessary for seismic microzonation (SM) studies since they must be integrated with the mapping of instability areas.

Automatic landslide length and width estimation based on the geometric processing of the bounding box and the geomorphometric analysis of DEMs [PDF]

open access: yesNatural Hazards and Earth System Sciences, 2016
The morphology of landslides is influenced by the slide/flow of the material downslope. Usually, the distance of the movement of the material is greater than the width of the displaced material (especially for flows, but also the majority of slides); the
