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.

SUBMARINE LANDSLIDES IN THE CONTINENTAL MARGINS OF THE ARCTIC BASIN [PDF]

Bulletin of Kamchatka Regional Association «Educational-Scientific Center». Earth Sciences, 2018
A review of investigations devoted to submarine landslides of Norwegian-Barents Sea-Spitsbergen and Canadian-Alaskan continental margins is presented. The review includes general characteristics of the landslides and environments in which they are widely spread.

The Age and Origin of Block Deposits in the Victorian Alps, Australia

Permafrost and Periglacial Processes, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Large periglacial block deposits are found in the mountains of southeastern Australia. Despite their widespread distribution, their mode of formation and age are poorly understood. These landforms hold considerable potential to shed light on the nature of cooling during glacial periods. In this paper we present a new study of block deposits in

3D physical modeling of tsunamis generated by submerged landslides at a conical island. The role of initial acceleration [PDF]

, 2016
This paper presents a new set of 3D experiments aimed to gain insight on the role of the initial acceleration upon the generation process of tsunamis by submerged landslides that may occur at the flanks of conical islands.

The relationship between equatorial wave interaction and heavy rainfall in Southeast Asia

Quarterly Journal of the Royal Meteorological Society, EarlyView.
This study examines the statistical relationship between co‐occurring equatorial waves and heavy rainfall in Southeast Asia. Heavy rainfall is more closely related to combined wave activity than to individual waves in many regions of Southeast Asia. The figure shows GPM–IMERG rainfall (shading) and ERA5 850‐hPa winds (vectors) composited on days when ...

Revealing Submarine Landslide Signatures in South Western Palu Bay: Insights from New Shallow Bathymetric Data [PDF]

E3S Web of Conferences
The 2018 Palu earthquake and tsunami was a rare event where tsunami generation was partly driven by coastal and submarine landslides triggered by a supershear Mw 7.5 strike-slip earthquake. While much attention has focused on the seismic source, the role

Improving forest age estimation to understand subtropical forest regrowth dynamics using deep learning image segmentation of time‐series historical aerial photographs

Remote Sensing in Ecology and Conservation, EarlyView.
Accurately estimating forest age is key to understanding how forests recover and evaluating restoration success. We developed a two‐step deep learning approach using historical greyscale aerial photographs to map forest age at fine spatial scales. By combining a pre‐trained model with localized fine‐tuning, our U‐Net + ResNet50 architecture achieved ...

Education in a Changing Climate: A Systematic Review for Low and Middle‐Income Countries (LMICs)

Sustainable Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Climate change is a major global challenge that affects many aspects of human life and hinders progress on the United Nations (UN) Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). One area that has not received enough attention is its impact on children's education in low‐ and middle‐income countries (LMICs), which are especially vulnerable to ...
