Seismic Monitoring of a Slope to Investigate Topographic Amplification
International Journal of Geohazards and Environment, 2015 Some earthquakes with a magnitude lower than Ms 7.0, such as Ludian earthquake in Yunnan in 2013, have triggered strong secondary geo-hazards in the form of slope failures. Topographic amplification is generally considered to be the main causal factor for these slope failures.

Experiments and Simulations on Coastal Flows in the Presence of a Topographic Slope [PDF]
Journal of Physical Oceanography, 2005 Abstract The evolution of a barotropic coastal current in the presence of a bottom ramp-shaped topography is studied by means of laboratory experiments and numerical simulations. The experiments are performed in a rectangular rotating tank filled with freshwater.

Effect of topographic slope on the export of nitrate in humid catchments [PDF]
, 2021 Abstract. Excess export of nitrate to streams affects ecosystem structure and functions and has been an environmental issue attracting world-wide attention. The dynamics of catchment-scale solute export from diffuse nitrate sources can be explained by the activation and deactivation of dominant flow paths, as solute attenuation (including the ...
