Global research on submarine landslides, 2001–2020
Submarine landslides, one of the hotspots in marine geoscience research, are one of the most harmful marine geological disasters. To understand the research status and further research directions of submarine landslides, this paper analyzed the global ...

Bathymetry and Shallow Seismic Imaging of the 2018 Flank Collapse of Anak Krakatau
The flank failure and collapse of Anak Krakatau on December 22nd, 2018 triggered a destructive tsunami. Whether the prior activity of the volcano led to this collapse, or it was triggered by another means, remains a challenge to understand.

Environmental Impact of Silicic Magmatism in Large Igneous Province Events
Exploring the links between Large Igneous Provinces and dramatic environmental impact
An emerging consensus suggests that Large Igneous Provinces (LIPs) and Silicic LIPs (SLIPs) are a significant driver of dramatic global environmental and biological changes, including mass extinctions.

Underestimated angle of submarine slope at failure: A short discussion [PDF]
Submarine landslides always occur along gently inclined continental slopes, but the reasons for such failure of low-angle submarine slopes are unclear and contentious.

In situ observation of wave-induced deformation of submarine landslides in tidal channel areas
Landslides often occur in land slopes, estuaries, fjords, and intertidal zones in the marine environment, while landslides in tidal channels have not been systematically reported. The Zhoushan sea area is dotted with islands and crisscross tidal channels,

Submarine Landslides and Their Tsunami Hazard
Most tsunamis are generated by earthquakes, but in 1998, a seabed slump offshore of northern Papua New Guinea (PNG) generated a tsunami up to 15 m high that killed more than 2,200 people. The event changed our understanding of tsunami mechanisms and was the forerunner to two decades of major tsunamis that included those in Turkey, the Indian Ocean ...

Submarine landslides, relationship with BSRs in the Dongsha area of South China Sea
: Gas hydrate samples were first obtained in the Dongsha area, South China Sea (GMGS2) in 2013. High-resolution 3D seismic data in the area show various small landslide bodies developed as huge mass transport deposits. These bodies are divided into seven
