Evaluation of factors controlling large earthquake-induced landslides by the Wenchuan earthquake
During the 12 May 2008, Wenchuan earthquake in China, more than 15 000 landslides were triggered by the earthquake. Among these landslides, there were 112 large landslides generated with a plane area greater than 50 000 m<sup>2</sup>. These large landslides were markedly...
