Landslides

Estimated Area Exposed to Hazard

Estimated Area Exposed to HazardLittle or no Little or no ≤ 0.1 km² Limited Limited 1 km² Significant Significant 10 km² Extensive Extensive 100 km² ≥ 1,000 km² Triangle indicates best estimate of exposure and horizontal bar represents the uncertainty (95% confidence interval) Triangle indicates best estimate of exposure and horizontal bar represents the uncertainty (95% confidence interval)
Landslides triggered by this earthquake are estimated to be extensive in number and (or) spatial extent.

Estimated Population Exposure

Estimated Population ExposureLittle or no Little or no ≤ 10 Limited Limited 100 Significant Significant 1,000 Extensive Extensive 10,000 ≥ 100,000 Triangle indicates best estimate of exposure and horizontal bar represents the uncertainty (95% confidence interval) Triangle indicates best estimate of exposure and horizontal bar represents the uncertainty (95% confidence interval)
The number of people living near areas that could have produced landslides in this earthquake is extensive. This is not a direct estimate of landslide fatalities or losses.

Liquefaction

Estimated Area Exposed to Hazard

Estimated Area Exposed to HazardLittle or no Little or no ≤ 1 km² Limited Limited 10 km² Significant Significant 100 km² Extensive Extensive 1,000 km² ≥ 10,000 km² Triangle indicates best estimate of exposure and horizontal bar represents the uncertainty (95% confidence interval) Triangle indicates best estimate of exposure and horizontal bar represents the uncertainty (95% confidence interval)
Liquefaction triggered by this earthquake is estimated to be significant in severity and (or) spatial extent.

Estimated Population Exposure
