Rainfall-induced landslide susceptibility zonation of Puerto Rico
Landslides are a major geologic hazard with estimated tens of deaths and $1–2 billion in economic losses per year in the US alone. The island of Puerto Rico experiences one or two large events per year, often triggered in steeply sloped areas by prolonged and heavy rainfall. Identifying areas susceptible to landslides thus has great potential value for Puerto Rico and would allow better managem...
متن کاملFuzzy Approach to Landslide Susceptibility Zonation
The paper addresses a landslide-prone area on Fruška Gora Mt. in NW Serbia. It proposes a model of relative landslide susceptibility based on fuzzy sets. Having a variety of spatial attributes (proven statistically significant) at disposal, as well as present landslide inventory map, we conducted systematic analysis through (i) assigning fuzzy memberships to attribute categories, and (ii) combi...
متن کاملLandslide Susceptibility Zonation through ratings derived from Artificial Neural Network
In thepresent study,ArtificialNeuralNetwork (ANN)hasbeen implemented toderive ratingsof categories of causative factors, which are then integrated to produce a landslide susceptibility zonation map in an
متن کاملArtificial neural networks and cluster analysis in landslide susceptibility zonation
A landslide susceptibility analysis is performed by means of Artificial Neural Network (ANN) and Cluster Analysis (CA). This kind of analysis is aimed at using ANNs to model the complex non linear relationships between mass movements and conditioning factors for susceptibility zonation, in order to identify unstable areas. The proposed method adopts CA to improve the selection of training, vali...
متن کاملLandslide dams triggered by the Wenchuan Earthquake, Sichuan Province, south west China
At 14:28 (Beijing time) on 12 May 2008, the catastrophic Ms 8.0 Wenchuan earthquake occurred just west of the Sichuan basin, China, causing severe damage and numerous casualties. It also triggered a large number of landslides, rock avalanches, debris flows etc. Some of the landslides formed natural dams in the rivers, with the potential secondary hazard of subsequent flooding. Through the inter...
