Pulsed carbon export from mountains by earthquake-triggered landslides explored in a reduced-complexity model (2021)
Journal Article
Croissant, T., Hilton, R. G., Li, G. K., Howarth, J., Wang, J., Harvey, E. L., …Densmore, A. L. (2021). Pulsed carbon export from mountains by earthquake-triggered landslides explored in a reduced-complexity model. Earth Surface Dynamics, 9(4), 823-844. https://doi.org/10.5194/esurf-9-823-2021

In mountain ranges, earthquakes can trigger widespread landsliding and mobilize large amounts of organic carbon by eroding soil and vegetation from hillslopes. Following a major earthquake, the landslide-mobilized organic carbon can be exported from...

Strongly heterogeneous patterns of groundwater depletion in northwestern India (2021)
Journal Article
Joshi, S., Gupta, S., Sinha, R., Densmore, A., Rai, S., Shekhar, S., …van Dijk, W. (2021). Strongly heterogeneous patterns of groundwater depletion in northwestern India. Journal of Hydrology, 598, Article 126492. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.jhydrol.2021.126492

Northwestern India has been identified as a significant hotspot of groundwater depletion, with major implications for groundwater sustainability caused by excessive abstraction. We know relatively little about the detailed spatial and temporal change... Read More about Strongly heterogeneous patterns of groundwater depletion in northwestern India.

Changing Significance of Landslide Hazard and Risk After The 2015 Mw 7.8 Gorkha, Nepal Earthquake (2021)
Journal Article
Rosser, N., Kincey, M., Oven, K., Densmore, A., Robinson, T., Pujara, D., …Dhital, M. (2021). Changing Significance of Landslide Hazard and Risk After The 2015 Mw 7.8 Gorkha, Nepal Earthquake. Progress in disaster science, 10, Article 100159. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.pdisas.2021.100159

The 2015 Mw 7.8 Gorkha, Nepal Earthquake triggered in excess of 20,000 landslides across 14 districts of Central and Western Nepal. Whilst the instantaneous impact of these landslides was significant, the ongoing effect of the earthquake on changing...

Evolution of coseismic and post‐seismic landsliding after the 2015 Mw 7.8 Gorkha earthquake, Nepal (2021)
Journal Article
Kincey, M. E., Rosser, N. J., Robinson, T. R., Densmore, A. L., Shrestha, R., Pujara, D. S., …Swirad, Z. M. (2021). Evolution of coseismic and post‐seismic landsliding after the 2015 Mw 7.8 Gorkha earthquake, Nepal. Journal of Geophysical Research: Earth Surface, 126(3), Article e2020JF005803. https://doi.org/10.1029/2020jf005803

Coseismic landslides are a major hazard associated with large earthquakes in mountainous regions. Despite growing evidence for their widespread impacts and persistence, current understanding of the evolution of landsliding over time after large earth...
