Effect of antecedent rainfall conditions and their variations on shallow landslide-triggering rainfall thresholds in South Korea

antecedent rainfall thresholds for the triggering of deep-seated landslides (case study: chaharmahal & bakhtiari province, iran)

rainfall is recognized as one of the main triggering factors of landslides. researchers have long attempted to determine the amount of precipitation required to trigger slope failures. one of the landslide zones in iran is chaharmahal & bakhtiari province where many landslides cause high casualties in recent decades. it is significant that most of these landslides occur after a rainy period...

Spatial patterns of rainfall and shallow landslide susceptibility

[1] We quantify the effect of spatial patterns in climatological rainfall on shallow landslide susceptibility by forcing a physically based model of slope stability (SHALSTAB) with the rainfall pattern produced by a high-resolution atmospheric model (MM5) over the western Olympic Mountains of Washington State. Our results suggest that for two small basins in the Olympics, 10 km–scale variations...

Effective rainfall: a significant parameter to improve understanding of deep-seated rainfall triggering landslide – a simple computation temperature based method

Pore water pressure, build up by recharge of hydrosystems, is one of the main triggering factors of deep seated landslides. Effective rainfall, which is the part of the rainfall which recharges the aquifer, is a significant parameter. Soil-water balance is an accurate way to estimate effective rainfall. Nevertheless this approach requires evapo5 transpiration, soil water storage and runoff char...

the effect of taftan pozzolan on the compressive strength of concrete in the environmental conditions of oman sea (chabahar port)

cement is an essential ingredient in the concrete buildings. for production of cement considerable amount of fossil fuel and electrical energy is consumed. on the other hand for generating one tone of portland cement, nearly one ton of carbon dioxide is released. it shows that 7 percent of the total released carbon dioxide in the world relates to the cement industry. considering ecological issu...
