Coseismic river avulsion on surface rupturing faults: Assessing earthquake-induced flood hazard

Surface-rupturing earthquakes can produce fault displacements that abruptly alter the established course of rivers. Several notable examples of fault rupture–induced river avulsions (FIRAs) have been documented, yet the factors influencing these phenomena have not been examined in detail. Here, we u...
