The many powerful aftershocks and subsequent landslides have hampered relief efforts in Sichuan, in southwest China.
Although some high-frequency signals were detected after the landslide produced its major impact, they might have been generated by subsequent landslides.
To identify evidence of landslides in the past, detailed investigations of natural slopes should be conducted to uncover the histories, to clarify critical factors that might cause slope failures and to establish countermeasures against expanding or subsequent landslides.
A series of earthquakes in Kumamoto and Oita Prefectures, central Kyushu, Japan, from April 14, 2016, collectively referred to as the 2016 Kumamoto earthquakes, caused damage by strong ground motions, surface ruptures, and subsequent landslides: more than 100 people were killed, more than 2000 people were injured, and more than 38,000 houses were fully or partially destroyed (FDMA 2016).
The earthquake flattened entire buildings, and subsequent landslides caused damage throughout the Tungurahua, Chimborazo, and Cotopaxi Provinces.
The injection of excitement into Scotland's political scene courtesy of the referendum and subsequent SNP landslide has clearly captured this young comic's imagination.
Subsequent flooding, landslides, and strong winds affected dozens of communities, and more than 300,000 residences lost power at the height of the storm.
This outbreak was associated with exposure to increased levels of airborne dust subsequent to landslides in the aftermath of the earthquake (39 ).
Damming of streams and subsequent breaching of landslide barriers strongly influence inter-montane sedimentation and denudation, with particular significance in post-, pand-, and inter-glacial contexts.
Future studies are necessary to track these fissures and evaluate subsequent rainfall-induced landslides.
