Landslides triggered by the 2024 Noto Peninsula earthquake.

The article discusses the landslides triggered by the 2024 Noto Peninsula earthquake in Ishikawa Prefecture, Japan. The earthquake, with a magnitude of 7.6, caused extensive damage and claimed 244 lives. Over 2300 landslides were triggered by the earthquake, including the Machinomachi and Ichinose landslides, which destroyed multiple houses. The article presents the results of field surveys, ring shear tests, and computer simulations to understand the mechanism of the landslides and validate the simulation results. The study highlights the importance of understanding long-runout landslides for future earthquake risk assessment. [Extracted from the article]
