- Abstract
Highlights from the article: The 2019 Sergey Soloviev Medal has been awarded to Kyoji Sassa for outstanding scientific contributions in fundamental research in landslide hazards and in landslide risk-reduction initiatives for the benefit of societies (Fig. 1 and Fig. 2). Graph: Fig. 1Sergey Soloviev Medal of the European Geoscience Union (left) and the 2019 Certificate for Kyoji Sassa for outstanding scientific contribution in fundamental research in landslide hazards and in landslide risk-reduction initiatives for the benefit of societies (right) Dr. Sassa has devoted his career for the development of Landslide Dynamics which is a new scientific field for landslide hazard assessment. Using the measured values of parameters of samples taken from landslides, a computer simulation for rapid landslides (LS-RAPID) can reproduce and also estimate the 3D motion of landslides.
