Distribution of landslides along the Andean active orogenic front (Argentinean Precordillera 31–33° S)
(Elsevier Ltd, 2019)
As one of the main environmental effects of earthquakes, the distribution of landslides could reflect regional neotectonic activity. To that end, we carried out an inventory of landslides along the Precordillera range ...
Seismic and geomorphic assessment for coseismic landslides zonation in tropical volcanic contexts
(2022-08)
The Poás volcano is an active volcano of Costa Rica with intense tectonic activity in its
flanks. Historically, the volcano has presented strong, surficial earthquakes provoking
many landslides with associated casualties ...
Coseismic and postseismic motion of a landslide: Observations,modeling, and analogy with tectonic faults
(American Geophysical UnionUS, 2014-10)
We document the first time series of a landslide reactivation by an earthquake using continuous GPS measurements over the Maca landslide (Peru). Our survey shows a coseismic response of the landslide of about 2 cm, followed ...
The September 19, 2017 Mw 7.1 Puebla-Mexico City Earthquake: Observed Rockfall and Landslide Activity
(2019)
This note documents key observations of slope instability and rockfall activity made by the UNAM-GEER reconnaissance team after the Mw 7.1 Puebla-Mexico City earthquake of September 19, 2017. The investigated sites were ...
Distribution of landslides along the Andean active orogenic front (Argentinean Precordillera 31–33° S)
(Pergamon-Elsevier Science Ltd, 2019-04)
As one of the main environmental effects of earthquakes, the distribution of landslides could reflect regional neotectonic activity. To that end, we carried out an inventory of landslides along the Precordillera range ...
Landslide change detection based on Multi-Temporal airborne LIDAR-derived DEMs
(Molecular Diversity Preservation International, 2018-01)
Remote sensing technologies have seen extraordinary improvements in both spatial resolution and accuracy recently. In particular, airborne laser scanning systems can now provide data for surface modeling with unprecedented ...
An active large rock slide in the Andean paraglacial environment: the Yerba Loca landslide, central Chile.
(Springer Heidelberg, 2020)
A ca. 2.5 million m(3) landslide occurred in August 2018 in the Yerba Loca valley, Andes Main Cordillera (33 degrees 15 ' S), at about 4000 m a.s.l. The Yerba Loca landslide is a multirotational slide, with a main scarp ...
Tectonic and climatic controls on the Chuquibamba landslide (western Andes, southern Peru)
(European Geosciences UnionDE, 2015-06)
The contribution of landslides to the Quaternary evolution of relief is poorly documented in arid contexts. In southern Peru and northern Chile, several massive landslides disrupt the arid western Andean front. The Chuquibamba ...
Rain and small earthquakes maintain a slow-moving landslide in a persistent critical state
(Springer NatureDE, 2020-02-07)
In tectonically active mountain belts, landslides contribute significantly to erosion. Statistical analysis of regional inventories of earthquake-triggered-landslides after large earthquakes (Mw > 5.5) reveal a complex ...
Land movement detection from UAV images
(Publicaciones ISPRS, 2022)
In Reina del Cisne (Cuenca-Ecuador) a dynamic sliding process was created due to a cut that was applied at the beginning of the year 2018 to the hillside without technical considerations for the construction of an access ...
