Submarine landslide megablocks show half of Anak Krakatau island failed on December 22nd, 2018 [PDF]
Nature Communications, 2021 The authors here present a detailed reconstruction of the landslide mass following the 2018 eruption of Anak Krakatau. Bathymetry data reports the volume of the collapsed submarine flank to be much larger than previously reported.

Tsunami scenario triggered by a submarine landslide offshore of northern Sumatra Island and its hazard assessment [PDF]
Natural Hazards and Earth System Sciences, 2023 Near the northern border of Sumatra, the right-lateral strike–slip Sumatran fault zone splits into two branches and extends into the offshore, as revealed by seismic sounding surveys. However, due to its strike–slip faulting characteristics, the Sumatran

Submarine landslide source modeling using the 3D slope stability analysis method for the 2018 Palu, Sulawesi, tsunami [PDF]
Natural Hazards and Earth System Sciences, 2022 Studies have indicated that submarine landslides played an important role in the 2018 Sulawesi tsunami event, damaging the coast of Palu Bay in addition to the earthquake source.

Climate-controlled submarine landslides on the Antarctic continental margin [PDF]
Nature Communications, 2023 Antarctica’s continental margins pose an unknown submarine landslide-generated tsunami risk to Southern Hemisphere populations and infrastructure. Understanding the factors driving slope failure is essential to assessing future geohazards.

Journal of Marine Science and Engineering, 2023 Submarine landslides in regions enriched with gas hydrates pose a significant threat to submarine pipelines, cables, and offshore platforms. Conducting a comprehensive regional-scale susceptibility assessment is crucial for mitigating the potential risks

Submarine‐channel meandering reset by landslide filling, Taranaki Basin, New Zealand
The Depositional RecordLandslides are among the largest mass movements on Earth. As such, the deposits of landslides, also known as mass‐transport deposits, are significant architectural elements of continental margins, especially those receiving sediment from large deltas ...

Giant Submarine Landslide in the South China Sea: Evidence, Causes, and Implications
Journal of Marine Science and Engineering, 2019 Submarine landslides can be tremendous in scale. They are one of the most important processes for global sediment fluxes and tsunami generation. However, studies of prodigious submarine landslides remain insufficient.
