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

open access: yes, 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 ...

Why Some Firms Perceive Climate Risks and Others Do Not—Evidence From the Logistics Sector

open access: yesBusiness Strategy and the Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This study explores how companies perceive risks stemming from climate change as a gradual process, focusing on the logistics sector. It advances research on organizational climate risk perception by integrating perspectives on embeddedness and resource configurations. Based on 41 semi‐structured interviews with representatives of 22 logistics

Morphometric signature of sediment particles reveals the source and emplacement mechanisms of submarine landslides [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
The long travel distances recorded by most submarine landslides indicate that changes in particle attributes (shape and size) may occur during their movement. Yet, little is known about the magnitude of such changes, and their underlying physical drivers.

Numerical and experimental study on P‐wave propagation across a rock joint with different orientations

open access: yesDeep Underground Science and Engineering, EarlyView.
Joint orientation significantly affects P‐wave velocity, with the highest velocity at zero‐degree angles, decreasing to 30° as the angle increases. The velocity increases slightly from 30 to 45 degrees but sharply decreases from 45 to 90 degrees. Abstract Determination of the required parameters in different science contexts using the ultrasonic wave ...

Numerous landslides and landslide restorations – an example [PDF]

open access: yesActa Montanistica Slovaca, 2012
Numerous landslides appeared in a smaller area of north-western Croatia during a short span of time ; in a large number of cases these landslides infringed upon local roads, public objects and other landscape. As is well known, the phenomenon of multiple landslides is connected to specific hydrometeorological features of the period, but also with ...
