Insight into landslide kinematics from a broadband seismic network

Dynamics of the Wulong landslide revealed by broadband seismic records

The catastrophic Wulong landslide occurred at 14:51 (Beijing time, UTC+8) on 5 June 2009, in Wulong Prefecture, Southwest China. This rockslide occurred in a complex topographic environment. Seismic signals generated by this event were recorded by the seismic network deployed in the surrounding area, and long-period signals were extracted from 8 broadband seismic stations within 250 km to obtai...

Landslide basal friction as measured by seismic waves

[1] Dynamical predictions of landslide runout require measurements of the basal friction. Here we present the first seismically determined bounds on the frictional coefficients for three large volcanic landslides. The three landslides (Bezymianny, Russia 1956, Sheveluch, Russia 1964 and Mount St. Helens, USA 1980) have masses that vary by a factor of 5 and were all followed immediately by erupt...
