Seismic triggering of Martian landslides and slope stability for Valles Marineris, Mars.
Caruso, Paul Arnold.

Seismic triggering of Martian landslides and slope stability for Valles Marineris, Mars. - 92 p.

Source: Masters Abstracts International, Volume: 41-03, page: 0748.

Thesis (M.S.)--University of Nevada, Reno, 2002.

Using goetechnical engineering; techniques this thesis assesses rock mass characteristics of interior layered deposits and wallrock of Valles Marineris, Mars in order to discern lithology. Interior layered deposits have consistently lesser height and angle than wallrock, indicative of weaker lithology. This research reveals that wallrock has strength properties consistent with layered igneous rock such as basalt. Additionally, this study establishes that interior layered deposits are primarily made up of partially lithified sedimentary rocks.

520 $a Using goetechnical engineering; techniques this thesis assesses rock mass characteristics of interior layered deposits and wallrock of Valles Marineris, Mars in order to discern lithology. Interior layered deposits have consistently lesser height and angle than wallrock, indicative of weaker lithology. This research reveals that wallrock has strength properties consistent with layered igneous rock such as basalt. Additionally, this study establishes that interior layered deposits are primarily made up of partially lithified sedimentary rocks.
520 $a Large-scale landslides in wallrock are also analyzed in order to determine what triggering mechanisms caused the landslides. Modeling of Martian slides establishes a threshold of ground acceleration needed to induce landslides. Seismic landslide hazard maps were created using data for surface fault length, geological materials and slope angles to ascertain where marsquakes can cause landslides. Results show that landslides occur where the seismic hazard map predicts highest seismic slide potential, demonstrating that landslides are caused by marsquakes.
