Hazard assessment of seismic-collapsed loess landslides on the Loess Plateau as exemplified by the M6.2 earthquake in Jishishan County, China

Frontiers in Earth Science
The Loess Plateau is marked by intense neotectonic activity and frequent earthquakes. Its unique physico-mechanical properties, combined with the granular overhead pore structure of loess, render it prone to seismic landslides triggered by strong ...
