Predicting seismic landslide hazard in the Batang fault zone of the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau

open access: yesShuiwen dizhi gongcheng dizhi, 2021
The Batang fault on the eastern Qinghai-Tibet Plateau has strong activity since the Holocene, where the geomorphology and geological structure is complex, and the historical earthquakes occurred frequently, which induced abundant landslides. For the long-

Distribution Pattern of Coseismic Landslides Triggered by the 2017 Jiuzhaigou Ms 7.0 Earthquake of China: Control of Seismic Landslide Susceptibility

open access: yesISPRS International Journal of Geo-Information, 2020
On 8 August 2017 an earthquake (MS7.0) occurred within Jiuzhaigou County, Northern Aba Prefecture, Sichuan Province, China, triggering 4834 landslides with an individual area greater than 7.8 m2 over a more than 400 km2 region.

Regional seismic landslide susceptibility assessment considering the rock mass strength heterogeneity

open access: yesGeomatics, Natural Hazards & Risk, 2023
Rock mass strength parameters are critical when applying the permanent-displacement analysis to landslide susceptibility assessment. Previous studies use limited measured data to assign a constant value for each lithology. Since the rock mass strength is

Effects of finite source rupture on landslide triggering: the 2016 Mw 7.1 Kumamoto earthquake [PDF]

open access: yesSolid Earth, 2019
The propagation of a seismic rupture on a fault introduces spatial variations in the seismic wave field surrounding the fault. This directivity effect results in larger shaking amplitudes in the rupture propagation direction.

New Insight into Post-seismic Landslide Evolution Processes in the Tropics

open access: yesFrontiers in Earth Science, 2021
Earthquakes do not only trigger landslides in co-seismic phases but also elevate post-seismic landslide susceptibility either by causing a strength reduction in hillslope materials or by producing co-seismic landslide deposits, which are prone to further

Earthquake‐induced landslide scenarios for seismic microzonation. Application to the Accumoli area (Rieti, Italy) [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
Scenarios of earthquake-induced landslides are necessary for seismic microzonation (SM) studies since they must be integrated with the mapping of instability areas.

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.

Rapid assessment of seismic landslide zones [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Modern Transportation, 2015
In the feasibility stage of the transport route selection, large-scale geological investigations are advised before the route is determined. Therefore, rapid assessment of seismic landslide zones can be completed by the second development of the ArcGIS program.

Recorded displacements in a landslide slope due to regional and teleseismic earthquakes [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Regional and teleseismic earthquakes can induce displacements along joints in a landslideinvolved rocky slope in Central Italy. The rarity of these effects is due to specific physical properties of the seismic signals associated with: (i) the energy ...
