A simple and efficient GIS tool for volume calculations of submarine landslides [PDF]
, 2010 A numeric tool is presented for calculating volumes of topographic voids such as slump scars of landslides, canyons or craters (negative/concave morphology), or alternatively, bumps and hills (positive/convex morphology) by means of digital elevation ...

Frictional heating lubrication for submarine landslide
Terrestrial, Atmospheric and Oceanic Sciences, 2018 Given a large block of fine-grained sediment that overlies a 1° continental slope, if the entire sediment deposit is shaken by an earthquake to slide down the slope with an initial velocity (referred to as "submarine landslide" hereinafter), our block model showed that the whole deposit can continuously slide downslope with the “help” of basal ...

Loess Studies in Aotearoa New Zealand
New Zealand Journal of Geology and Geophysics, Volume 69, Issue 2, June 2026.Loess in Aotearoa New Zealand (ANZ) has been studied since its first documented recognition (on Banks Peninsula) in 1878 by Julius von Haast. A decade later, John Hardcastle revealed that southern ANZ loess was both glacial in origin and contained signals of past climates.

An Overview of Tsunami Hazards in the Southwest Pacific Ocean
New Zealand Journal of Geology and Geophysics, Volume 69, Issue 2, June 2026.The southwest Pacific region is geologically complex and exhibits all the principal causes of tsunami generation. While contemporary events and historical catalogs indicate that trans‐Pacific tsunamis have affected this area (∼18% of tsunamis reported globally), it is unique in that a large part of the tsunami effects over the ∼200‐year historical ...

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 ...

Map and Archival Evidence of the Historical Avulsion of the Brahmaputra River
The Geographical Journal, Volume 192, Issue 2, June 2026.Short Abstract One of the world's great rivers, the Brahmaputra, avulsed—changed course—significantly sometime between the dates of 1765 and 1830. These are the dates of surveys by James Rennell (grey) and Richard Wilcox (black), both under the direction of the East India Company; no other surveys between these dates can refine the estimate of the ...

Responses of wind turbine foundations in sand subjected to submarine landslides
Yantu gongcheng xuebaoThe 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 ...
