A new classification of earthquake-induced landslide event sizes based on seismotectonic, topographic, climatic and geologic factors

Geoenvironmental Disasters

Table 2 Scenarios of earthquake-induced landslides assessed for two target regions - results

Scenarios
Region	Earthquake scenario	M	HD (km)	I	F	T	C	L	Predicted number of landslides	Predicted affected area (km²)
Romania	Vrancea - scenario	8.00	180.00	0.13	1.50	1.00	2.00	2.00	760	160,935
Kyrgyzstan-Tajikistan	South Tien Shan - scenario	7.80	15.00	1.87	6.00	3.00	1.00	2.00	67,444	29,590

M is the magnitude and HD the hypocentral depth of the scenario earthquake, I is the Intensity, F is the Fault factor, T is the Topographic energy, C is the Climatic factor, L is the Lithological factor
F location is the Fault (rupture) location (in Mountains =2; near = 1.5; other = 1); F type is the Fault type (Dip-slip = 1.5, Strike-slip =1); F length is the Fault length (>100 km =2, 20–100 km =1, < 20 km =0.5); F is the resulting Fault factor (as included in Table 2)
