Importance analysis of seismic landslide influencing factors on the eastern margin of the Qinghai-Xizang Plateau

open access: yesZhongguo dizhi zaihai yu fangzhi xuebao
The spatial distribution of seismic landslides is influenced by a wide range of factors. Understanding the relative importance of these factor is crucial for accurately predicting seismic landslide risks.

Rock mass characterization coupled with seismic noise measurements to analyze the unstable cliff slope of the Selmun Promontory (Malta) [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
In the Mediterranean area, cliff slopes represent widespread high-risk landforms as they are highly frequented touristic places often interested by landslide processes.

Millennial slip rate of the Longitudinal Valley fault from river terraces: Implications for convergence across the active suture of eastern Taiwan [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
The Longitudinal Valley fault is a key element in the active tectonics of Taiwan. It is the principal structure accommodating convergence across one of the two active sutures of the Taiwan orogeny.

Patterns and Drivers of Cliff Erosion in Big Sur, California, USA Using Repeat Photogrammetry, 2017–2023

open access: yesEarth and Space Science, Volume 13, Issue 5, May 2026.
Abstract Seacliff erosion in steep terrain poses major risks to transportation and critical infrastructure. In Big Sur, California, USA, seacliff erosion threatens the sustainability of the central coast stretch of California State Route 1, a transportation corridor that is critical to the region's economy.

Downscaling Daily Discharge to Sub‐Daily Scales for Alpine Glacierized Catchments

open access: yesWater Resources Research, Volume 62, Issue 5, May 2026.
Abstract Hydrological dynamics in glacierized catchments of the Alps are shaped by temperature‐driven processes, including snow and ice melt as well as precipitation, leading to diel streamflow cycles that vary in intensity within‐ and among‐the seasons.

Application of High-Resolution Seismic Interpretation Methods to Reconstruct Depositional Paleoenvironment of Machów Formation in the Central Part of Carpathian Foredeep

open access: yesApplied Sciences
The depositional environment of the Machów Formation in the central part of the Carpathian Foredeep is still relatively poorly understood. Although lithological variability, facies diversity, and depositional history have been described in many ...

Rates of erosion and landscape change along the Blue Ridge escarpment, southern Appalachian Mountains, estimated from in situ cosmogenic 10Be [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
The Blue Ridge escarpment, located within the southern Appalachian Mountains of Virginia and North Carolina, forms a distinct, steep boundary between the lower-elevation Piedmont and higher-elevation Blue Ridge physiographic provinces.

Adsorption Preceding Wetting Front Controls Seismic Velocity

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 8, 28 April 2026.
Abstract Rock elasticity varies with both humidity and water saturation, yet their combined effects remain poorly understood, although in nature vapor adsorption and liquid infiltration occur simultaneously. Here, we present experimental data of P‐wave velocity and volume expansion in a free‐standing sandstone subject to progressive wetting.

Seismic Sedimentology for the Characterization of Quaternary Evaporite Facies in Biogas-Bearing Taidong Area, Sanhu Depression, Qaidam Basin, NW China

open access: yesApplied Sciences
S-wave seismic data are unaffected by natural gas trapped in strata, making them a valuable tool to study evaporite facies comparing to P-wave data. S-wave seismic data were utilized to construct an isochronous framework and analyze evaporite facies by ...
