Most-cited papers in Geology Today

Low‐grade metamorphism

R. E. Bevins, Doug Robinson · 1 Jan 1992

Diagenesis refers to those changes which take place in sediments after sedimentation but before lithification (the conversion to solid rock), while metamorphism is defined as the process whereby alterations to the composition, texture or mineralogy take place in consolidated rocks. However, the boundary between diagenesis and metamorphism is gradual/transitional and somewhat arbitrary; it cannot be…

Landslide prediction from machine learning

Oliver Korup, Amelie Stolle · 1 Jan 2014

Predicting where and when landslides are likely to occur in a specific region of interest remains a key challenge in natural hazards research and mitigation. While the basic mechanics of slope‐failure initiation and runout can be cast into physical and numerical models, a scarcity of sufficiently detailed and real‐time measurements of soil, rock‐mass and groundwater…

The 2021 eruption of the Cumbre Vieja volcanic ridge on La Palma, Canary Islands

Juan Carlos Carracedo, Valentin R. Troll, James M.D. Day et al. · 1 May 2022

Almost exactly half a century after the eruption of the Teneguía Volcano on La Palma (26 October to 28 November 1971), a new eruption occurred on the island and lasted for 85 days from 19 September until 13 December 2021. This new eruption opened a volcanic vent complex on the western flank of the Cumbre…

Google Earth: a new geological resource

Richard J. Lisle · 1 Jan 2006

Since its release in June 2005, Google Earth has been bringing satellite images of our planet into our homes, or at least to those homes with broadband connections. Computer users, excited by seeing their own houses from on high, or even their cars parked in the drive, have been raving about this impressive piece of…

Debris flows: behaviour and hazard assessment

Richard M. Iverson · 1 Jan 2014

Debris flows are water‐laden masses of soil and fragmented rock that rush down mountainsides, funnel into stream channels, entrain objects in their paths, and form lobate deposits when they spill onto valley floors. Because they have volumetric sediment concentrations that exceed 40 percent, maximum speeds that surpass 10 m/s, and sizes that can range up…
