A review of landslide inventories provides an essential assessment of the state of knowledge around landslide hazard and can guide the focus of future studies. This is especially true in Nepal, which is highly prone to landslides, but lacks a compreh...

Recent large earthquakes in the Himalaya have resulted in tens of thousands of fatalities, yet these events are thought to have had relatively moderate magnitudes for the region. Evidence suggests multiple events throughout the Himalaya in the last 1... Read More about Scenario ensemble modelling of possible future earthquake impacts in Bhutan.

Use of scenario ensembles for deriving seismic risk (2018)
Journal Article
Robinson, T., Rosser, N., Densmore, A., Oven, K., Shrestha, S., & Guragain, R. (2018). Use of scenario ensembles for deriving seismic risk. Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, 115(41), E9532-E9541. https://doi.org/10.1073/pnas.1807433115

High death tolls from recent earthquakes show that seismic risk remains high globally. While there has been much focus on seismic hazard, large uncertainties associated with exposure and vulnerability have led to more limited analyses of the potentia...
