The Response of Landslide Stability to Extreme Climate in Triangle Area

open access: yesShuitu baochi yanjiu, 2011
Landslide in triangle area is a typical one in Three Gorges,the storage water in reservoir will arouse the resurrection of landslide,especially under extreme weather conditions,therefore,landslide stability evaluation under 4 conditions has been ...

Mechanism of fracture preferential flow infiltration-induced shallow damage of colluvial landslides

open access: yesYantu gongcheng xuebao
Soil fissures provide infiltration channels for rainfall, and the dominant flow formed along these channels dominates the infiltration process of rainfall, leading to the gradual deterioration of landslide stability and the continuous development of ...

Landslide Failure Mechanisms of Dispersive Soil Slopes in Seasonally Frozen Regions

open access: yesAdvances in Civil Engineering, 2020
Hydraulic projects with dispersive soil in seasonally frozen regions are susceptible to landslide failures. The mechanism of such landslide failures has not been fully understood thus far; therefore, it was investigated in this study by using on-site ...

Differentiated Rift Rupture and Apparent Northward Earthquake Ordering in Southern Tibet Revealed by the 2025 Mw 7.0 Dingri Earthquake and Its Preceding Events

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 21, 16 November 2026.
Abstract North–south‐trending rifts in southern Tibet accommodate active east–west extension, but how normal‐faulting rupture varies with rift development remains unclear. Here we use Synthetic Aperture Radar observations to investigate the 2025 Mw 7.0 Dingri earthquake in the southern Xainza–Dinggye rift.

A Simplified Approach to Assess the Soil Saturation Degree and Stability of a Representative Slope Affected by Shallow Landslides in Oltrepò Pavese (Italy)

open access: yesGeosciences, 2018
The identification of the triggering mechanism of rainfall-induced, shallow landslides requires a complete understanding of the hydro-mechanical response of soil, which can be represented through the trends of the degree of soil saturation. In this paper,

Influence of Site Amplification Approaches in PSRA: Insights From Five Different Cities

open access: yesEarthquake Spectra, Volume 42, Issue 4, November 2026.
Regional and national seismic hazard models used in probabilistic seismic risk analysis often rely on generalized proxy‐based site terms to account for ground shaking amplification. This can result in coarse representations of site response, which can introduce bias or additional uncertainty in the associated risk results.

Evaluating MM3 Multimodal Model Against High-Resolution Mapping for Earthquake-Induced Landslide Assessment in Kaikoura, New Zealand [PDF]

open access: yes
Thesis (Master's)--University of Washington, 2025On November 14, 2016, New Zealand experienced an Mw 7.8 earthquake that triggered over 30,000 landslides. A high-resolution landslide inventory was developed within the study area, mapping 1,082 landslides.

Shallow landslide susceptibility analysis in relation to land use scenarios

open access: yes, 2016
Shallow landslides can represent a destructive phenomena due to the absence of incipient movement evidence and to their high velocity, especially when turning into debris flows. The occurrence and the behavior of rainfall-triggered shallow landslides are
