A New Surface Rupture of the 1556 Huaxian M ∼ 8.5 Earthquake Revealed by Rock Surface Luminescence Dating of a Bedrock Fault Scarp and Colluvial Wedges

Geophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 3, 16 February 2026.
Abstract Bedrock fault scarps and their associated colluvial wedges provide key evidence for reconstructing paleoearthquakes. We apply rock surface luminescence dating to a bedrock scarp on the Huashan fault in central China, using OSL‐depth profiles (DPs) from multiple heights. Results reveal two coseismic displacements of 6.8 and >1.0 m.

Geophysical investigation and dynamic modelling of unstable slopes: case-study of Kainama (Kyrgyzstan) [PDF]

, 2017
The presence of massive Quaternary loess units at the eastern border of the Fergana Basin (Kyrgyzstan, Central Asia) makes this area particularly prone to the development of catastrophic loess earthflows, causing damages and injuries almost every year ...

Co‐Seismic Deformation and Local Stress Evolution of the Philippines Earthquakes in July and October 2022 Revealed by InSAR and GNSS Observations

Earth and Space Science, Volume 13, Issue 2, February 2026.
Abstract On 27 July and 25 October 2022, an Mw 7.0 earthquake and an Mw 6.4 earthquake struck Abra, northwest of Luzon, Philippines, respectively, with a time interval of less than 3 months and a distance of about 16 km. In this research, interferometric synthetic aperture radar (InSAR) was utilized to retrieve the co‐seismic surface deformation field ...

Coseismic Landslide Area Prediction Using Generalised Additive Model: A Case Study of the 2013 Minxian Earthquake

Geoscience Data Journal, Volume 13, Issue 1, January 2026.
Comparison between observed and predicted landslide areas in log scale. ABSTRACT This study aims to establish a regional model for predicting seismic landslide areas. Using the 2013 Minxian earthquake‐induced landslide database as the research foundation, mathematical statistics and GIS techniques were applied to predict landslide areas through the ...

Experimental and Numerical Investigation of Reinforced Soil Slopes With Vertical Rib and Inclined Reinforcement: Application to Embankment Slopes

Advances in Civil Engineering, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.
Reinforced soil technology is widely applied in slope stabilization, yet the optimal configuration of reinforcement remains a key design challenge. This study presents a comprehensive investigation of vertical rib‐reinforced and inclined‐reinforced geogrid layouts through scaled physical model tests (1:10) and finite element simulations using MIDAS GTS.

Strong Ground Motion Characteristics of the Saturated Loess Site

Shock and Vibration, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.
Significant differences exist in the ground response of saturated and unsaturated deposits to earthquakes, but few relevant studies exist on strong ground motion in saturated loess. We have selected three loess sites that are highly affected by earthquake‐induced liquefaction hazards, analyzed the nonlinear characteristics of the ground motion response

Understanding International Cooperation Potential in Coastal Multiple Hazards Governance Through Risk Similarity

Earth's Future, Volume 13, Issue 12, December 2025.
Abstract Multiple hazard risks (MHRs) in coastal zones will continue to increase due to climate change and rising sea levels. These disproportionate impacts create shared challenges that require cross‐border mitigation efforts. However, understanding how coastal areas exhibit common risk patterns and how such patterns can inform risk‐based cooperation ...

Aseismic Slip on the Ilyak Strike‐Slip Fault (Tajikistan) and Active Fault and Landslide Hazards in and Around the Tajik Basin Revealed by InSAR

Tectonics, Volume 44, Issue 12, December 2025.
Abstract The Ilyak fault in Tajikistan is an E‐W striking strike‐slip fault, which forms the northern boundary of the actively deforming Tajik Basin fold and thrust belt. Determining the activity of the Ilyak fault is important for understanding the hazard to the nearby capital city of Dushanbe, and more generally in assessing the role of lithology in ...
