| Zusammenfassung |
| Numerous rockfalls were detected in the Las Cuevas valley,
Argentina, after the 27 February 2010 earthquake in Chile. Live
rockfalls were observed during aftershocks of 11 March 2010. Many
rockfall source areas coincide with known thrust fault and some
areas presented a rockfall activity even after the tremors. Some
rockfalls crossed the National Road 7 but no damages to houses or
vehicles were reported. This study illustrates how the 27 February
2010 earthquake impacted on unstable slopes in a valley far from the
earthquakes epicentre. It is an interesting addition to previous
studies on landslides caused by earthquakes because of the high
magnitude of the event and of its aftershocks. |
