A Comprehensive Assessment of Submarine Landslides and Mass Wasting Processes Offshore Southern California

open access: yesGeochemistry, Geophysics, Geosystems
It is critical to characterize submarine landslide hazards near dense coastal populations, especially in areas with active faults, which can trigger slope failure, subsequent tsunamis, and damage seabed infrastructure during earthquake shaking.

Undersea landslides: extent and significance in the Pacific Ocean, an update [PDF]

open access: yesNatural Hazards and Earth System Sciences, 2005
Submarine landslides are known to occur disproportionately in a limited number of environments including fjords, deltas, canyons, volcanic islands and the open continental slope.

A new Savage-Hutter type model for submarine avalanches and generated tsunami [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
In this paper we present a new two-layer model of Savage-Hutter type to study submarine avalanches. A layer composed of fluidized granular material is assumed to flow within an upper layer composed of an inviscid fluid (e. g. water). The model is derived

Submarine Landslides and their Distribution in the Gas Hydrate Area on the North Slope of the South China Sea

open access: yesEnergies, 2018
Integrated investigations have revealed abundant resources of gas hydrates on the northern slope of the South China Sea (SCS). Regarding the gas hydrate research of northern SCS, the gas hydrate related environment problem such as seabed landslides were ...

Submarine Landslides

open access: yes, 2019
An examination of ancient and contemporary submarine landslides and their impact. Landslides are common in every subaqueous geodynamic context, from passive and active continental margins to oceanic and continental intraplate settings. They pose significant threats to both offshore and coastal areas due to their frequency, dimensions, and terminal ...

Cenozoic sedimentary and volcanic rocks of New Zealand: A reference volume of lithology, age and paleoenvironments with maps (PMAPs) and database. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
This volume presents descriptive geological data and text about each Cenozoic sedimentary and volcanic geological unit to formation and member level (in some cases) exposed on land in New Zealand, including their lithology, stratigraphic age and inferred

Developing a simple soil erosion model including spatial variability in headwater catchments

open access: yesAgrosystems, Geosciences &Environment, Volume 9, Issue 2, June 2026.
Abstract Hillslopes and stream channels are tightly linked in headwater catchments, where soil erosion on slopes is transported to channels depending on topography, soil properties, and ground cover conditions. Because these environments are highly spatially variable, geographic information system (GIS)‐based modeling approaches are effective for ...

Sph propagation modelling of an earthflow from southern italy [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Natural slopes in clayey soils are often affected by failures which may cause the onset of landslides of the flow type travelling large distances and damaging buildings and major infrastructures.

Evaluation of Earthquake‐Induced Slope Displacements in Greater Vancouver Based on Probabilistic Framework and Using NBCC 2020 and EqDisp Code Platform

open access: yesEarthquake Spectra, Volume 42, Issue 2, May 2026.
Engineers frequently use simplified seismic slope displacement procedures to evaluate the performance of earth structures and natural slopes. Current practices typically adopt Newmark‐type and semi‐empirical seismic displacement prediction models (SDPMs) to estimate the seismic slope displacements (D) based on ground motion intensity measures at a ...

Responses of wind turbine foundations in sand subjected to submarine landslides

open access: yesYantu gongcheng xuebao
The submarine landslides are massive underwater sediment movements on the ocean floor and can pose significant threats to offshore structures. Understanding the mechanism of submarine landslide-offshore structure interaction is essential for risk ...
