Bayesian model calibration of submarine landslides
Abstract Current practice to model the occurrence of submarine landslides is based on methods that assess the potential of site-specific failures, all with the objective of providing elements to identify and quantify regional features associated to geohazards, before a project development takes place.

Abstract Landslides represent one of the most devastating natural hazards in mountainous regions, posing significant threats to human safety, infrastructure and ecosystems. It is well established that there is a connection between meteorological factors and landslide occurrences but the mechanisms of these interactions and the impacts of climatic ...

Abstract On 7–8 January, 2025, the Eaton fire destroyed >9,000 structures and >40 km2 of forest in the northeastern region of the Los Angeles metropolitan area, California. Building damage was primarily assessed through ground investigations, a process that took several weeks due to hazardous conditions and the difficulty of accessing burnt areas. This

TSUNAMIGENIC SOURCES IN THE BAY OF PLENTY, NEW ZEALAND [PDF]
New Zealand sits in a precarious position astride the boundary between the Pacific and Australian Plates. There is a wide range of potential tsunamigenic sources in this area including fault movements, submarine landslides, volcanic activity, and other ...

On the Future of Extreme Rainfall in New Zealand
Abstract Extreme rainfall is intensifying under climate change, but projected changes in the intensity, frequency, and spatial extent of extremes are not yet well constrained for smaller nations like New Zealand. Here, we use high‐resolution (∼12 km) dynamically downscaled CMIP6 climate simulations to examine future changes in annual maximum one‐day ...

Advances in Understanding Marine Geohazards: From Characterization to Prediction
Marine geohazards encompass a wide variety of processes, including submarine landslides, canyon morphodynamics, turbidity currents, gas hydrates, seafloor fluid emissions, and the impacts of internal solitary waves on sediments [...]

Abstract The Southern Rocky Mountain Trench (SRMT) is a conspicuous valley in the eastern Canadian Cordillera. It lies above a sharp change in lithospheric strength and thickness and is occupied by a normal fault thought to have last been active in the Eocene.
