Detection of landslide induced by large earthquake using InSAR coherence techniques – Northwest Zagros, Iran

Egyptian Journal of Remote Sensing and Space Sciences, 2020
The Iran earthquake of November 12, 2017 is one of the most significant earthquakes throughout the history of Iran, which shook the regions of NW Zagros Mountains, Sarpol-e Zahab Region, and Northwest of Iran with a sheer magnitude of 7.3 Mw.

Physical Modeling of Subaerial Granular Landslide‐Induced Tsunami Waves

Journal of Geophysical Research: Oceans, Volume 131, Issue 3, March 2026.
Abstract Investigating tsunamigenic landslides via physical experiments is important to increase the understanding of these often devastating events for improving disaster prevention. Landslide masses often consist of granular material, which usually is characterized by non‐uniform grain size distributions, irregular shape and pronounced surface ...

Exploring the Formation and Age of Irregular Mare Patches (IMPs) to the Southeast of the Chang'e‐5 Landing Site

Journal of Geophysical Research: Planets, Volume 131, Issue 3, March 2026.
Abstract Recently, possible exceptionally young mare volcanic glass beads were discovered in Chang'e‐5 (CE‐5) samples. Isotopic dating suggests an age of approximately 120 Ma, presenting new challenges to existing lunar thermal evolution models. Thus, our research focuses on the source region of Rima Mairan, a branch of Rima Sharp, and its surrounding ...

Assessing Potential Landing Sites With Favorable Illumination and Accessible, Potentially Volatile‐Rich Permanently Shadowed Regions Within Artemis Candidate Landing Regions

Journal of Geophysical Research: Planets, Volume 131, Issue 3, March 2026.
Abstract The lunar south pole features permanently shadowed regions (PSRs) that never receive direct sunlight. These regions maintain cold temperatures that potentially trap and accumulate volatiles over geologic timescales. Within NASA's Artemis candidate landing regions, we identified 130 candidate landing sites (CLSs) that satisfy the Human Landing ...

Why Firn Quakes

Geophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 4, 28 February 2026.
Abstract Snow dampens sounds, but anecdotal reports concisely describe audible propagating collapse events—firnquakes—in Antarctic and Arctic snowfields. We propose combining granular and continuum mechanics to form a testable theory for conditioning, triggering, and propagation of firnquakes consistent with scarce data.

A New Surface Rupture of the 1556 Huaxian M ∼ 8.5 Earthquake Revealed by Rock Surface Luminescence Dating of a Bedrock Fault Scarp and Colluvial Wedges

Geophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 3, 16 February 2026.
Abstract Bedrock fault scarps and their associated colluvial wedges provide key evidence for reconstructing paleoearthquakes. We apply rock surface luminescence dating to a bedrock scarp on the Huashan fault in central China, using OSL‐depth profiles (DPs) from multiple heights. Results reveal two coseismic displacements of 6.8 and >1.0 m.

Cavola experiment site: geophysical investigations and deployment of a dense seismic array on a landslide

Annals of Geophysics, 2007
Geophysical site investigations have been performed in association with deployment of a dense array of 95 3-component seismometers on the Cavola landslide in the Northern Apennines.

Rain and small earthquakes maintain a slow-moving landslide in a persistent critical state

Nature Communications, 2020
In this study, the authors show the interaction between seismic activity and rainfalls on landslide movement and how their timing controls landslide stability and motion.

True Volumes of Slope Failure Estimated From a Quaternary Mass‐Transport Deposit in the Northern South China Sea

Geophysical Research Letters, 2018
Submarine slope failure can mobilize large amounts of seafloor sediment, as shown in varied offshore locations around the world. Submarine landslide volumes are usually estimated by mapping their tops and bases on seismic data.
