A two-layer shallow flow model with two axes of integration, well-balanced discretization and application to submarine avalanches [PDF]
We propose a two-layer model with two different axes of integration and a well-balanced finite volume method. The purpose is to study submarine avalanches and generated tsunamis by a depth-averaged model with different averaged directions for the fluid ...

Numerical Study on Interaction between Submarine Landslides and a Monopile Using CFD Techniques
Offshore installations with pile foundations in shallow water are vulnerable to submarine landslides, which cause serious damage to engineering facilities, loss of life, and loss of money.

Submarine Landslide Susceptibility Mapping in Recently Deglaciated Terrain, Glacier Bay, Alaska
Submarine mass wasting events have damaged underwater structures and propagated waves that have inundated towns and affected human populations in nearby coastal areas.

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.

Submarine landslides are a global geohazard that can displace huge volumes of loose submarine sediment, thereby triggering enormous tsunami waves and causing a serious threat to coastal cities.

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.

Runup and rundown generated by three-dimensional sliding masses [PDF]
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.

Research on deformation of submarine slope in Zhoushan Islands by in-situ observation [PDF]
Instability of submarine slopes in Zhoushan Islands is widespread. Frequent submarine landslides pose a great threat to offshore facilities such as submarine optical cables, reclamation projects, ports and docks.

Detecting Compaction Disequilibrium with Anisotropy of Magnetic Susceptibility [PDF]
In clay-rich sediment, microstructures and macrostructures influence how sediments deform when under stress. When lithology is fairly constant, anisotropy of magnetic susceptibility (AMS) can be a simple technique for measuring the relative consolidation
