A Shifting Landscape
Abstract
Recent major earthquakes have been the drivers of complex multihazard cascading events, such as landslides, that may have been more likely due to weather events like extreme floods or continuous rainfalls. These cascading effects are becoming an increasingly common threat that may be overlooked by geotechnical engineers, who typically focus on assessments of single geohazards in isolation, disregarding potential exacerbation effects from associated hazards that may follow. Recent catastrophic events have brought up the importance of cascading multihazards with vivid examples of human, geostructural, environmental, and socioeconomic impacts with interactions and interplays that need to be studied to eventually advance our codes and standards of practice.
