Insight from a Physical-Based Model for the Triggering Mechanism of Loess Landslides Induced by the 2013 Tianshui Heavy Rainfall Event

Water, 2023
Rainfall-induced landslides pose a significant threat to human life, destroy highways and railways, and cause farmland degradation in the Loess Plateau. From 19 June 2013 to 26 July 2013, continuous and heavy rainfall events occurred in the Tianshui area,

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.

Co‐Seismic Deformation and Local Stress Evolution of the Philippines Earthquakes in July and October 2022 Revealed by InSAR and GNSS Observations

Earth and Space Science, Volume 13, Issue 2, February 2026.
Abstract On 27 July and 25 October 2022, an Mw 7.0 earthquake and an Mw 6.4 earthquake struck Abra, northwest of Luzon, Philippines, respectively, with a time interval of less than 3 months and a distance of about 16 km. In this research, interferometric synthetic aperture radar (InSAR) was utilized to retrieve the co‐seismic surface deformation field ...

Two‐dimensional Green–Ampt response of high‐capacity tensiometers and a conceptual pathway to correct dynamic water retention curve data

Vadose Zone Journal, Volume 25, Issue 1, January/February 2026.
Abstract In the investigation of the relationship between measured soil suction and the rate of saturation change, an increase in response time prevents the tensiometer from instantaneously reacting to changes in suction. Solving this problem requires a tensiometer response model, which is based on the measured data from partial drainage and adsorption

Tributary‐Trunk Sedimentary Links in an Inter‐Dam River Reach: Lessons From Low‐Altitude High‐Gradient Forested Streams, the Dyje River (Czechia‐Austria)

River Research and Applications, Volume 41, Issue 10, Page 2157-2176, December 2025.
ABSTRACT This study employs two measures of connectivity, valley confinement index (VCI) and effective catchment area (ECA), combined with a field survey of active sediment sources (ASS) to unravel the tributary‐trunk sedimentary links in the 42.5 km long inter‐dam reach of the Dyje River, Czech‐Austrian border.

Experimental analysis of rainfall-induced shallow landslides: a case study of a loess slope in Gaolan County, China

Frontiers in Earth Science
Rainfall is a major trigger for loess landslides, and understanding the associated deformation and failure mechanisms is essential for effective hazard mitigation. This study employed physical model experiments to investigate the hydrological response, deformation behavior, and failure evolution of homogeneous loess slopes subjected to intermittent ...

Rethinking Global Soil Degradation: Drivers, Impacts, and Solutions

Reviews of Geophysics, Volume 63, Issue 4, December 2025.
Abstract The increasing threat of soil degradation presents significant challenges to soil health, especially within agroecosystems that are vital for food security, climate regulation, and economic stability. This growing concern arises from intricate interactions between land use practices and climatic conditions, which, if not addressed, could ...

Aseismic Slip on the Ilyak Strike‐Slip Fault (Tajikistan) and Active Fault and Landslide Hazards in and Around the Tajik Basin Revealed by InSAR

Tectonics, Volume 44, Issue 12, December 2025.
Abstract The Ilyak fault in Tajikistan is an E‐W striking strike‐slip fault, which forms the northern boundary of the actively deforming Tajik Basin fold and thrust belt. Determining the activity of the Ilyak fault is important for understanding the hazard to the nearby capital city of Dushanbe, and more generally in assessing the role of lithology in ...
