Side-scan sonar imaging of the Colorado River, Grand Canyon Side-scan sonar imaging of the Colorado River, Grand Canyon
This paper presents data collection methods and side-scan sonar data collected along the Colorado River in Grand Canyon in August and September of 2000. The purpose of the data collection effort was to image the distribution of sand between Glen Canyon Dam and river mile 87.4 before and after the 31,600 cfs flow of September 6-8. The side-scan sonar imaging focused on pools between...

Remotely triggered earthquakes following moderate main shocks Remotely triggered earthquakes following moderate main shocks
Since 1992, remotely triggered earthquakes have been identified following large (M > 7) earthquakes in California as well as in other regions. These events, which occur at much greater distances than classic aftershocks, occur predominantly in active geothermal or volcanic regions, leading to theories that the earthquakes are triggered when passing seismic waves cause disruptions in...

Thirty-one years of debris-flow observation and monitoring near La Honda, California, USA Thirty-one years of debris-flow observation and monitoring near La Honda, California, USA
From 1975 until 2006,18 intense storms triggered at least 248 debris flows within 10 km2 northwest of the town of La Honda within the Santa Cruz Mountains, California. In addition to mapping debris flows and other types of landslides, studies included soil sampling and geologic mapping, piezometric and tensiometer monitoring, and rainfall measurement and recording. From 1985 until 1995...

Hazards from hydrothermally sealed volcanic conduits Hazards from hydrothermally sealed volcanic conduits
The 17 March 2006 eruption from Raoul Island (Kermadec arc, north of New Zealand) is interpreted as a magmatic‐hydrothermal event triggered by shaking associated with a swarm of local earthquakes. The eruption, which tragically claimed the life of New Zealand Department of Conservation Ranger Mark Kearney, occurred without significant volcanic seismicity or any of the precursory...

The third hans cloos lecture. Urban landslides: Socioeconomic impacts and overview of mitigative strategies The third hans cloos lecture. Urban landslides: Socioeconomic impacts and overview of mitigative strategies
As a result of population pressures, hillsides in the world's urban areas are being developed at an accelerating rate. This development increases the risk for urban landslides triggered by rainfall or earthquake activity. To counter this risk, four approaches have been employed by landslide managers and urban planners: (1) restricting development in landslide-prone areas; (2)...
