The wide range of both spatial and temporal scales distinguishes landslide processes
significantly from other natural processes such as floods, earthquake shaking or tsunamis …

Although it is generally assumed that the internal structure of a slope (eg lithology and rock
mass properties, inherited faults and heterogeneities, etc.) is preponderant for the …

Abstract The May 12, 2008 Wenchuan earthquake of China (Mw 7.9 or Ms 8.0) triggered
hundreds of thousands of landslides. Mapping such a large number of landslides is a major …

On 20 April 2013, an earthquake with Mw 6.6 (Ms 7.0) hit Lushan County, Sichuan Province
of China (30.3° N, 103° E), only 85 km southwest of the 2008 Wenchuan Mw 7.9 event. The …

Power spectral analyses of soil moisture variability are carried out from scales of 100 m to 10
km on the microwave remotely-sensed data from the Washita experimental watershed …

Inventory maps of earthquake-triggered landslides can be constructed using several
methods, which are often subject to obvious differences due to lack of commonly accepted …

Landslides can be caused by storms and earthquakes. Most logistic regression models
proposed in recent years have been targeted at rainfall-induced landslides. In areas such as …

The province of Chimborazo located in the northern Andes of Ecuador presents many
intrinsic factors, which contribute to the occurrence of mass movements, leaving in many of …

Various scientists forecasted long-term major slope failures after the 8 October 2005, 7.6 Mw
earthquake in the northern parts of Pakistan along the Balakot–Bagh fault line. The …

In many environments, landslides preserved in the geologic record can be analyzed to
determine the likelihood of seismic triggering. If evidence indicates that a seismic origin is …
