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 ...

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, ...

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 2007, a massive landslide crashed into B.C.'s Lake Chehalis, triggering a tsunami that surged 38 metres up the shore — one ...

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 ...

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 ...
