Album caption: Cape Fortunas (False Cape) landslide, one of the largest landslides triggered by the 1906 shock. View toward scarp. Similar photograph previously published by Lawson and others (1908, pl. 127A) with caption "Earth-slump at Cape Fortunas, Humboldt County." Humboldt County, California. 1906. Published as figure 67-A in U. S. Geological Survey. Professional paper 993. 1978. Photograph by A. S. Eakle, courtesy of The Bancroft Library, University of California, Berkeley.

February 20, 2013 Bitter Spring on Highway 89 near Page, Arizona. (Photo by Arizona Department of Transportation) The Bitter Spring landslide occurred along heavily-used US Highway 89, about 25 miles south of Page, Arizona. The regional landslide complex in which the slide occurred has been recognized since at least since early last century (Gregory's 1917 USGS Professional Paper 93, "Geology of the Navajo Country") The Arizona Dept. of Transportation (ADOT) will pave Navajo Route 20 (N20) as a detour at a cost of $28 million. Since the landslide occurred in an active landslide area, it is probable that the highway will not be rebuilt over the original route.

House is on the toe of the slide, and the major part of the landslide is out of view to the right. People and machinery for scale. City and County of San Francisco, California. June 1, 1979.

Aerial view of a major rockslide that occurred in Glenwood Canyon on March 8, 2010, closing Interstate - 70 which runs through the Canyon. The traffic had to be diverted to northern Colorado, causing a 4-hour delay for trucks and other motor vehicles. (Photo by Colorado Department of Transportation, CDOT).

Lidar data were collected on 17 May 2017 at the USGS debris-flow flume (44.215, -122.254) to monitor the movement of a constructed landslide experiment. A static prism of sediment was emplaced behind a retaining wall at the top of the flume. Water was added via sprinklers to the surface and also via pipes to the subsurface, in order to saturate the sediment mass. The sediment mass eventually failed as a debris flow and moved down the flume. Lidar data were collected from a Riegl VZ-400 terrestrial laser scanner to capture the mass failure. The laser scanner was modified, so that rather than scanning in a 360 degree motion, as it is designed, it only scanned a narrow swath (approximately 1 mm) along the full...

In late September 2017, intense precipitation associated with Hurricane Maria caused extensive landsliding across Puerto Rico. Much of the Utuado municipality in central Puerto Rico was severely impacted by landslides. Landslide density in this region was mapped as greater than 25 landslides/km2 (Bessette-Kirton et al., 2019). In order to better understand the controlling variables of landslide occurrence and runout in this region, four 2.5-km2 study areas were selected and all landslides within were mapped in detail using remote-sensing data. Included in the data release are five separate shapefiles: geographic areas representing the mapping extent of the four distinct areas (map areas, filename: map_areas), initiation...

This inventory was originally created by Harp and Jibson (1995) describing the landslides triggered by the M 6.7 Northridge, California earthquake that occurred on 17 January 1994 at 12:30:55 UTC. Care should be taken when comparing with other inventories because different authors use different mapping techniques. This inventory also could be associated with other earthquakes such as aftershocks or triggered events. Please check the author methods summary and the original data source for more information on these details and to confirm the viability of this inventory for your specific use. With the exception of the data from USGS sources, the inventory data and associated metadata were not acquired by the U.S....

This inventory describes the landslides triggered by the M7.0 Sicily, Italy earthquake that occurred on 1908-12-28 at 4:20:26 UTC. The inventory comes from the Italian Catalogue of Earthquake-Induced Ground Effects (Italian acronym CEDIT) by Martino and others (2014), which contains inventories from multiple earthquakes. To obtain the most up to date version of the entire, original catalog along with more details about its compilation, please visit the CEDIT webpage on the website of the Centre for Research (CERI) of the Department of Earth Sciences in the Sapienza University of Rome: http://www.ceri.uniroma1.it/index.php/web-gis/cedit/.
