Runup and rundown generated by three-dimensional sliding masses [PDF]
, 2005 To study the waves and runup/rundown generated by a sliding mass, a numerical simulation model, based on the large-eddy-simulation (LES) approach, was developed.

In situ observation of wave-induced deformation of submarine landslides in tidal channel areas
Frontiers in Earth Science, 2023 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 depositional terraces at Salina Island (Southern Tyrrhenian Sea) and implications on the Late-Quaternary evolution of the insular shelf [PDF]
, 2018 The integrated analysis of high-resolution multibeam bathymetry and single-channel seismic profiles around Salina Island allowed us to characterize the stratigraphic architecture of the insular shelf.

Submarine Landslides and Their Tsunami Hazard
Annual Review of Earth and Planetary Sciences, 2021 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
Petroleum Research, 2016 : 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

The first ultra-high resolution Digital Terrain Model of the shallow-water sector around Lipari Island (Aeolian Islands, Italy) [PDF]
, 2015 Very high resolution bathymetric map obtained through multibeam echosounders data are crucial to generate accurate Digital Terrain Models from which the morphological setting of active volcanic areas can be analyzed in detail. Here we show and discuss

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

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.
