Late Pliocene–Quaternary Arc Volcanism at the Southern Limit of the Hikurangi Subduction Zone: Revised Chronology of the Taranaki Peninsula, New Zealand

open access: yesNew Zealand Journal of Geology and Geophysics, Volume 69, Issue 4, December 2026.
Igneous centres across the Taranaki Peninsula represent the southwestern limit of arc volcanism associated with the Tonga–Kermadec–Hikurangi subduction system. Taranaki Maunga, the youngest and largest of three andesitic stratovolcanoes, dominates the geomorphology of the Taranaki Peninsula along with the eroded remnants of the Kaitake and Pouakai ...

Soil characterization for shallow landslides modeling: a case study in the Northern Apennines (Central Italy) [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
In this paper, we present preliminary results of the IPL project No. 198 “Multi-scale rainfall triggering models for Early Warning of Landslides (MUSE).” In particular, we perform an assessment of the geotechnical and hydrological parameters affecting ...

Estimating Sub‐Pixel Temperatures During Volcanic Eruptions Using Dual‐Band Thermal Imaging Technique: Case Studies From Whakaari/White Island (New Zealand) and Tofua (Tonga)

open access: yesNew Zealand Journal of Geology and Geophysics, Volume 69, Issue 4, December 2026.
This study presents the first application of a dual‐band satellite thermal monitoring technique in New Zealand and Tonga, using the 2019 eruption of Whakaari/White Island and the persistently active Lofia crater on Tofua volcano as case studies. At Whakaari/White Island, near‐synchronous Landsat‐8 and Sentinel‐2A data (16 min interval) were analysed ...

Physically based model for assessing rainfall-induced deep-seated landslides using a hydrological-geotechnical model

open access: yesAnnals of GIS
In mountainous areas, understanding the sizes and types of rainfall-induced landslides, and identifying areas at high risk, are critical challenges for disaster management. Shallow and deep-seated landslides are the two major types in mountainous regions,

The Weather Radar Observations Applied to Shallow Landslides Prediction: A Case Study From North-Western Italy

open access: yesFrontiers in Earth Science, 2018
In northern Italy rainfall-triggered shallow landslides are recurrent hazardous phenomena that cause casualties and extensive damages. In the last decades several early warning systems (EWSs) have been developed based on rainfall intensity–event duration

Impact of Vegetation Differences on Shallow Landslides: A Case Study in Aso, Japan

open access: yes, 2023
Climate change has increased the frequency and scale of heavy rainfall, increasing the risk of shallow landslides due to heavy rainfall. In recent years, ecosystem-based disaster risk reduction (Eco-DRR) has attracted attention as one way to reduce ...

Assessing Many Image Processing Products Retrieved from Sentinel-2 Data to Monitor Shallow Landslides in Agricultural Environments

open access: yesRemote Sensing
Remote images are useful tools for detecting and monitoring landslides, including shallow landslides in agricultural environments. However, the use of non-commercial satellite images to detect the latter is limited because their spatial resolution is ...

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.

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.
