Large earthquakes initiate chains of surface processes that last much longer than the brief
moments of strong shaking. Most moderate‐and large‐magnitude earthquakes trigger …

Snow avalanche is a serious threat to the safety of roads in alpine mountains. In the western
Tianshan Mountains, large scale avalanches occur every year and affect road safety. There …

Identifying and tracking the potential avalanche types is the first step toward characterizing
an avalanche problem and a fundamental principle of effective avalanche risk management …

Strong ground motions caused by earthquakes can induce catastrophic avalanches.
Massive snow avalanching has also been observed on slopes near quarries and …

This paper provides a comprehensive overview of the glacial hazards (GHs) and reflects the
situations in the Nepal Himalaya. We discuss on the different GHs with focus on the …

In most seismic hazard analyses, ground motion prediction equations consider only the
effects of the top~ 30 m of local soil and fail to consider the effects of the deep geological …

Snow avalanches are critical events due to the sudden instability of snow in mountain
regions. Seismically induced snow avalanches, due to a particular type of trigger perturbing …

Climate change and human activities have increased avalanche risks in alpine mountains.
Therefore, strengthening the research on mitigating and controlling avalanche disasters is …

Snow avalanches cause economic losses in many parts of the world, especially in
mountainous areas. Due to its changing climates and the complex topography of …

Snow avalanches are moving sources of infrasonic and seismic energy. They can be
triggered by many different mechanisms that include the shaking produced by earthquakes …
