“…There are many different agents that trigger submarine mass failures. These include seismicity or seismic loading, slope oversteepening, sea-level variations, local fault activity, submarine fluid-flow/gas hydrate dissociation, high sedimentation rates causing excess pore pressures as well as submarine erosional processes (e.g., Cauchon-Voyer et al, 2008;Mulder et al, 2009;Dondurur et al, 2013;Ducassou et al, 2013;Rovere et al, 2014;Çukur et al, 2016;Sun and Alves, 2020). Although the earthquake loading is considered to be the most effective factor for the mass movements, in most cases, multiple factors are effective on the failures.…”
