12-12-25 Mt. King George Landslide with Large Runout
12-12-25 Mt. King George Landslide with Large RunoutLarge landslide on the southwest side of Mt. King George. The main debris lobe is 1800 m wide, and material would have travelled approximately 6 km from the source area (triangular scar) in the background. Photo courtesy of Yukon Geological Survey.

Postfire debris flow in the 2024 Elk Fire burn area
Postfire debris flow in the 2024 Elk Fire burn areaA debris flow recorded by a USGS Landslide Monitoring Station in the 2024 Elk Fire burn area near Dayton, Wyoming. The flow was triggered by intense rainfall during a thunderstorm on the evening of July 15, 2025.

Geologic Controls on Deep-Seated Landslides
The frequency and scale of landslides in a region are determined by both external forcing and inherent, site-specific susceptibility.

Understanding large rock slides in deglaciated valleys in the Central and Patagonian Andes
Understanding large rock slides in deglaciated valleys in the Central and Patagonian AndesThe effects of deglaciation on the slope stability of glacial valleys have increasing importance in the context of climate change, with a role on the susceptibility to large-volume rock slides or rock avalanches and catastrophic cascading geohazards.

Controls on post-fire debris flows in Oregon
Wildfire often amplifies the likelihood and magnitude of debris flows in steep terrain. In arid climates (e.g. US Mountain West and Southwest), post-fire debris flows typically occur during the first rains following fire, suggesting that rainfall-driven erosion is a strong control on in-channel preconditioning and triggering of these hazards.
