Landslides - Cause and effect Landslides - Cause and effect

Landslides can cause seismic disturbances; landslides can also result from seismic disturbances, and earthquake-induced slides have caused loss of life in many countries. Slides can cause disastrous flooding, particularly when landslide dams across streams are breached, and flooding may trigger slides. Slope movement in general is a major process of the geologic environment that places...

Preliminary geomagnetic data, College Observatory, Fairbanks, Alaska: January 1976 Preliminary geomagnetic data, College Observatory, Fairbanks, Alaska: January 1976

The preliminary geomagnetic data included here is made available to scientific personnel and organizations, as part of a cooperative effort and on a data exchange basis because of the early need by some users. To avoid delay, all of the data is copied from original forms processed at the observatory; therefore it should be regarded as preliminary.

In-situ measurements of seismic velocities in the San Francisco Bay region...Part II In-situ measurements of seismic velocities in the San Francisco Bay region...Part II

Seismic wave velocities (compressional and shear) are important parameters for determining the seismic response characteristics of various geologic units when subjected to strong earthquake ground shaking. Seismic velocities of various units often show a strong correlation with the amounts of damage following large earthquakes and have been used as a basis for certain types of seismic...
