Seismically induced landslides: current research by the US Geological Survey. Seismically induced landslides: current research by the US Geological Survey.
We have produced a regional seismic slope-stability map and a probabilistic prediction of landslide distribution from a postulated earthquake. For liquefaction-induced landslides, in situ measurements of seismically induced pore-water pressures have been used to establish an elastic model of pore pressure generation. -from Authors

Some Techniques for Reducing Landslide Hazards Some Techniques for Reducing Landslide Hazards
Many techniques are available for reducing landslide hazards; 27 are described in this paper. Prerequisites for the successful use of these techniques are hazard information understandable to nongeologists and adequate communication of this information to those who will, or are required to, use it. It is concluded that certain factors needed to ensure the lasting effectiveness of these...

An assessment of the near-surface accuracy of the international geomagnetic reference field 1980 model of the main geomagnetic field An assessment of the near-surface accuracy of the international geomagnetic reference field 1980 model of the main geomagnetic field
The new International Geomagnetic Reference Field (IGRF) model of the main geomagnetic field for 1980 is based heavily on measurements from the MAGSAT satellite survey. Assessment of the accuracy of the new model, as a description of the main field near the Earth's surface, is important because the accuracy of models derived from satellite data can be adversely affected by the magnetic...
