Landslide-induced tsunamis are generated when mass-scale failures, including subaerial and submarine landslides, abruptly displace water and initiate tsunami waves. These events have captured ...
A massive landslide in remote Greenland sent the Earth vibrating for nine straight days, unleashing a mysterious seismic signal that left scientists scrambling for answers. The landslide, which took ...
Alberta’s Throne speech a few weeks ago reiterated the demand, specifically describing the government’s desire for a new ...
A tsunami is a series of waves generated by a large and sudden displacement of the ocean. Large earthquakes below or near the ocean floor are the most common cause, but landslides, volcanic activity, ...
In 2015, 76 million cubic meters of rock crashed from the rugged cliffs above a southeastern Alaska fjord and into the water below. The landslide sparked a nearly 200-meter-tall wave that roared down ...
New research demonstrates shipborne navigation systems have potential to improve tsunami detection and warning. Landslide-generated tsunamis pose a serious risk to coastal communities, particularly ...
Move over earthquakes, tsunamis have taken center stage. I will acknowledge the largest magnitude earthquake since 2011, but the Kamchatka M8.8 did little shaking damage and the tsunami was the bigger ...
The seismic event in a remote part of Greenland last September saw the giant wave repeatedly slosh back and forth across a fjord – generating vibrations around the world, say scientists. A new study, ...
