Surface-wave velocity measurements of shear stiffness of moving earthflows

Earthflows are a flow-like movement of plastic clayey soils characterized by long periods of slow motion (at rates averaging a few meters per year or less) alternated with short periods of rapid surges at high velocity (up to meters per hour). During rapid surges, most earthflows move over a long di...
