Groups of landslides induced by heavy rainfall are widely distributed on a global basis and they usually result in major losses human life economic damage. However, compared with earthquakes, inventories much less common. In this study we used high-precision remote sensing images before after continuous southern Tianshui, China, from 20 June to 25 July 2013, produce an inventory 14,397 shallow landslides. Based the results landslide inventory, utilized machine learning geographic information...

The China–Pakistan Karakoram Highway is an important land route from China to South Asia and the Middle East via Pakistan. Due extremely hazardous geological environment around highway, landslides, debris flows, collapses, subsidence are frequent. Among them, flows one of most serious hazards on Highway, they often cause interruptions traffic casualties. Therefore, development flow susceptibility mapping along highway can potentially facilitate its safe operation. In this study, we used...

The continued increase in demand for food is such that flood-irrigation-based agricultural techniques are not expected to change the future. Consequently, cultivated areas dominated by river terraces experience neotectonic movements, catastrophes caused earthquakes trigger material liquefaction may continue occur. Among catastrophes, low-angle, ultra-long-distance landslides induced synergistic effects of tectonic and human activities events fully understood but can potentially be mitigated....

Debris flows represent major hazards in most mountainous regions of the world where they repeatedly result disasters. In order to protect people and infrastructure against future debris flows, many flow catchments have been artificially intervened by employing various mitigation measures, including civil engineering works. However, commonly adapted such as check dams, are not effective for every catchment, failure measures even causes more damage, e.g. Sanyanyu catchment Zhouqu, China,...

Debris flow risk comprehensively reflects the natural and social properties of debris disasters is composed disaster-causing body vulnerability carrier. The Bailong River Basin (BRB) a typical mountainous environment where regional occur frequently, seriously threatening lives residents, infrastructure, ecological security. However, there are few studies on assessment in BRB. By considering complete catchment, based remote sensing GIS methods, we selected 17 influencing factors, such as...

Debris flows are a major geological hazard in mountainous regions. For improving mitigation, it is important to study the spatial distribution and factors controlling debris flows. In Bailong River Basin, central China, landslides very well developed due large differences terrain, complex environment, concentrated rainfall. analysis, 52 influencing factors, statistical, machine learning, remote sensing GIS methods were used analyze of 652 flow catchments with different frequencies. The these...

Accumulating evidence suggests that cardiovascular diseases and breast cancer share a number of common risk factors, however, on the association between health (CVH) is limited. The present study aimed to assess CVH, defined by Life's Essential 8 (LE8) genetic with incidence mortality among premenopausal postmenopausal women.
