Landslide susceptibility mapping using a machine learning approach and different environmental factors in the Western Ghats region (India)

Earth Surface Processes and Landforms, Volume 51, Issue 5, May 2026.
Landslide susceptibility mapping in India's Western Ghats using machine learning revealed high‐risk zones driven by deforestation, slope alteration and road proximity. The Random Forest model showed highest accuracy, supporting targeted mitigation, planning and early warning systems.

Opportunities for the U.S. Geological Survey's National Seismic Hazard Model to Improve Seismic Risk Assessment of Critical Infrastructure

Earthquake Spectra, Volume 42, Issue 2, May 2026.
As fragility and risk modeling techniques and computational capabilities evolve, complemented by moving toward more routine and systematic seismic risk assessment of all buildings and critical infrastructure, the authors pose a few critical questions to investigate how the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) National Seismic Hazard Models (NSHMs) can be used

Assessing Post‐Earthquake Emergency Healthcare Accessibility Considering Damage to Hospital Buildings and Transportation Infrastructure

Earthquake Spectra, Volume 42, Issue 2, May 2026.
This article presents a framework for performing a regional assessment of the accessibility of emergency healthcare facilities after a major earthquake. Accessibility is assessed by applying the enhanced two‐step floating catchment area method to a regional road network, implemented in ArcGIS.

Ground‐Motion Characterization for the 2025 U.S. National Seismic Hazard Model for Puerto Rico and the U.S. Virgin Islands

Earthquake Spectra, Volume 42, Issue 2, May 2026.
We develop the ground‐motion characterization (GMC) for the 2025 U.S. National Seismic Hazard Model for Puerto Rico and the U.S. Virgin Islands (NSHM‐PRVI) for earthquakes in active crustal, subduction interface, and subduction intraslab regimes. Using ground‐motion models (GMMs) from the Next‐Generation Attenuation (NGA)‐West2 and NGA‐Subduction ...
