AbstractThe landslide activities in the Quaternary of the Japanese Islands have been controlled by active neotectonic movements and humid climatic conditions. Most of the present active landslides in Cenozoic muddy sediment in the Japanese Islands occur in the ancient landslides site. In the Musigame landslides site in the Cenozoic Niigata sedimentary basin, the present active landslides are concentrated along the fissures and cracks in the ancient primary landslide blocks. The initial failure of the primary Musigame landslides might have occurred in the mudstone with the intact undrained shear strength and the retrogressive failures with a combination of the intact undrained shear strength and residual undrained strength. Secondary and presently active landslides have occurred in the previously disturbed mudstone in accordance with the residual drained shear strength. The analysis of the occurrence, movement and history of the primary and secondary landslides is essential to understand the present activity of landslide.
