Dataset of Microstructural and Dynamic Mechanical Properties of Compacted Loess Modified by Calcium Oxalate Crystals: Implications for Geotechnical Engineering in Loess Regions

open access: yesGeoscience Data Journal, Volume 13, Issue 3, July 2026.
Dynamic torsional shear tests and SEM/PCAS analysis were combined to characterize calcium oxalate crystal‐modified compacted loess. The dataset connects OA concentration, damping‐ratio behaviour, pore‐structure evolution and Pearson correlations, supporting micro–macro interpretation of chemically modified loess.

Seepage-stress coupled modeling for rainfall induced loess landslide

open access: yes, 2019
Although rainfall is rare on the Loess Plateau of western China, landslides occur frequently there in rainy season. Surveys report that landslide hazards always follow heavy rains.

Distribution and Characteristics of Damming Landslides Triggered by 1920 M~8 Haiyuan Earthquake, NW China

open access: yesRemote Sensing, 2022
Earthquake-triggered damming landslides threaten downstream residents and affect the regional landscape by disrupting water and sediment fluxes. Therefore, it is essential to study the distribution characteristics and distinctive controlling factors of ...

Seeing Through the Noise: Implications for Signal Preservation in Sediment Flux Time Series From Erosional Systems

open access: yesJournal of Geophysical Research: Earth Surface, Volume 131, Issue 7, July 2026.
Abstract Allogenic forcing of sediment production generates sedimentary signals that we use to understand the past. These signals may be buffered or shredded by autogenic processes as they travel through sediment routing systems from source to sink. Studies on signal propagation tend to focus on either signal buffering by deterministic fluvial networks

Developing a simple soil erosion model including spatial variability in headwater catchments

open access: yesAgrosystems, Geosciences &Environment, Volume 9, Issue 2, June 2026.
Abstract Hillslopes and stream channels are tightly linked in headwater catchments, where soil erosion on slopes is transported to channels depending on topography, soil properties, and ground cover conditions. Because these environments are highly spatially variable, geographic information system (GIS)‐based modeling approaches are effective for ...

Distribution of large- and medium-scale loess landslides induced by the Haiyuan Earthquake in 1920 based on field investigation and interpretation of satellite images

open access: yesOpen Geosciences, 2022
Studying the distribution law and influencing factors of coseismic landslides has important scientific significance and engineering value for understanding the mechanism of seismic landslides and predicting the occurrence of seismic landslides.

Loess Studies in Aotearoa New Zealand

open access: yesNew Zealand Journal of Geology and Geophysics, Volume 69, Issue 2, June 2026.
Loess in Aotearoa New Zealand (ANZ) has been studied since its first documented recognition (on Banks Peninsula) in 1878 by Julius von Haast. A decade later, John Hardcastle revealed that southern ANZ loess was both glacial in origin and contained signals of past climates.

Loess Landslide Dataset in Tianshui City, Gansu Province

open access: yes
This dataset covers 115 loess landslide cases in Tianshui City, Gansu Province from 1988 to 2021. The parameters recorded in detail include the landslide area (A) and the landslide volume (V).

On the influence of temporal change on the validity of landslide susceptibility maps [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
The consideration of non-stationary landslide causal factors in statistical landslide susceptibility assessments is still problematic. The latter may lead to erroneous model predictions, especially in times of dramatic environmental change.

Source Parameters of the 1906 Manas (Mw 7.7), 1944 Xinyuan (Mw 7.2) and 1812 Nilke Earthquakes and Seismotectonics of the Borohoro Shan, Western China

open access: yesTectonics, Volume 45, Issue 6, June 2026.
Abstract The 1906 Manas Earthquake is the largest earthquake recorded in the Borohoro Shan (BRS) since 1900. The reported magnitude ranges from 7.2 to 8.3, but uncertainties remain regarding its size, mechanism, and responsible fault. Similar confusion exists for the 1812 Nilke and 1944 Xinyuan Earthquakes, the only other Mw > 7 earthquakes in the NE ...
