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

New Insights into the Emplacement Dynamics of Volcanic Island Landslides [PDF]
Oceanography, 2014 Volcanic islands form the highest topographic structures on Earth and are the sites of some of the planet's largest landslides. These landslides can rapidly mobilize hundreds of cubic kilometers of rock and sediment, and potentially generate destructive ...

Impact‐Induced Seafloor Deformation From Submarine Landslides: Diagnostic of Slide Velocity?
Geophysical Research Letters, 2023 Submarine landslides shape continental margins, transfer massive amounts of sediment downslope, and can generate deadly and destructive tsunamis. Submarine landslides are common globally, yet constraining hazard potential of future events is limited by a

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,

Subaqueous landslides at the distal basin of Lago Nahuel Huapi (Argentina): Towards a tsunami hazard evaluation in Northern Patagonian lakes [PDF]
, 2018 The May 22nd, 1960 Valdivia earthquake, Chile (Mw 9.5) triggered a series of subaqueous mass-wasting processes (debris flows and slides) in Lago Nahuel Huapi (Argentina), generating a tsunami-like wave that hit the coasts of San Carlos de Bariloche ...

Introduction to the special issue on submarine geohazard records and potential seafloor instability
Terrestrial, Atmospheric and Oceanic Sciences, 2018 Submarine landslides frequently occur in passive continental margins or active margins (Hampton et al. 1996; Wynn et al. 2000; Mienert et al. 2002; Korup et al. 2007; Twichell et al. 2009; Cukur et al. 2016).
