Characteristics of landslides caused by the 2018 Hokkaido Eastern Iburi Earthquake

The 2018 Hokkaido Eastern Iburi Earthquake struck the eastern Iburi region (epicenter: 42.691°N, 142.007°E, depth: 37.0 km) of Hokkaido, Japan, at 3:07.59 JST, September 6, 2018 (18:07.59, September 5, 2018 UTC). Many shallow landslides were triggered by this M w 6.6 (M j 6.7) earthquake. The baseme...

Zusammenfassung:The 2018 Hokkaido Eastern Iburi Earthquake struck the eastern Iburi region (epicenter: 42.691°N, 142.007°E, depth: 37.0 km) of Hokkaido, Japan, at 3:07.59 JST, September 6, 2018 (18:07.59, September 5, 2018 UTC). Many shallow landslides were triggered by this M w 6.6 (M j 6.7) earthquake. The basement complex in the affected area (sedimentary rocks) is covered with thick pyroclastic fall deposits derived from the Tarumae Volcano, etc., and the strong seismic shocks triggered shallow landsliding of them. Shallow landslides moving along valley type topography traveled greater distances than those moving along planar slope topography. Some shallow landslides occurred on relatively gentle slopes (
