Subaqueous sediment density flows are one of the volumetrically most important processes
for moving sediment across our planet, and form the largest sediment accumulations on …

Lake Van is the fourth largest terminal lake in the world (volume 607km3, area 3570km2,
maximum depth 460m), extending for 130km WSW–ENE on the Eastern Anatolian High …

Understanding the long‐term earthquake recurrence pattern at subduction zones requires
continuous paleoseismic records with excellent temporal and spatial resolution and stable …

Central Switzerland lies tectonically in an intraplate area and recurrence rates of strong
earthquakes exceed the time span covered by historic chronicles. However, many lakes are …

Two twin short gravity cores and a long piston core recovered from the deepest part of
proglacial Lake Bramant (Grandes Rousses Massif, French Alps), under and overlying a …

Seismically‐induced event deposits embedded in the sedimentary infill of lacustrine basins
are highly useful for palaeoseismic reconstructions. Recent, well‐documented, great …

Large prehistoric rockslides tend to occur within spatio-temporal clusters suggesting a
common trigger such as earthquake shaking or enhanced wet periods. Yet, trigger …

Understanding the seismic hazard posed by large earthquakes requires paleoseismic
investigation because most faults have not ruptured repeatedly during the period of historic …

Accurate probabilistic seismic hazard analysis requires a good knowledge of the recurrence
parameters of the strongest earthquakes in a region. Due to the typical short temporal span …

We identify evidence for three large paleo-earthquakes in central Switzerland with moment
magnitudes (M> 6.5–7.0) significantly exceeding historically known values. These …
