Acta Geographica Slovenica, 2020 In Slovenia, mass movements are not only a threat to the population, but also a major environmental and social science challenge. Lithologically heterogeneous areas have been found to be problematic, and the Miocene Slovenj Gradec basin (in northeast ...

Global Drivers and Transport Mechanisms of Lunar Rockfalls
Journal of Geophysical Research: Planets, 2021 The long‐ and short‐term drivers and transport mechanisms of lunar rockfalls are currently not well understood, but could provide valuable information about the geologic processes that still shape the surface of the Moon today.

Rockfall Intensity under Seismic and Aseismic Conditions: The Case of Lefkada Island, Greece
Land, 2023 Rockfall analysis is a multiparametric procedure with many uncertainties and the outputs are largely dependent on some critical engineering geological parameters involved in the used simulation model.

Spatiotemporal characteristics of ground microtremor in advance of rockfalls
Scientific Reports, 2022 Identifying cliffs that are prone to fall and providing a sufficient lead time for rockfall warning are crucial steps in disaster risk reduction and preventive maintenance work, especially that led by local governments. However, existing rockfall warning

Impacts drive lunar rockfalls over billions of years
Nature Communications, 2020 Past exploration missions have revealed that the lunar topography is eroded through mass wasting processes such as rockfalls and other types of landslides, similar to Earth.

Spatial data infrastructure (SDI) for inventory rockfalls with fragmentation information
Natural Hazards, 2022 The fragmentation phenomenon has a significant effect on rockfall risk assessment. This information is difficult to obtain, but it is key to improving rockfall modelling.

Repetitive Rockfall Trajectory Testing [PDF]
Geosciences, 2018 Numerical simulations of rockfall trajectories are a standard procedure for evaluating rockfall hazards. For these simulations, corresponding software codes must be calibrated and evaluated based on field data. This study addresses methods of repeatable rockfall tests, and investigates whether it is possible to produce traceable and statistically ...
