Time-Series Variation of Landslide Expansion in Areas with a Low Frequency of Heavy Rainfall

open access: yesGeosciences, 2023
After multiple simultaneous landslides caused by heavy rainfall, expanding landslides continue to occur for a certain duration. Evaluation of the influencing period of sediment yield due to expanding landslides is vital for comprehensive sediment ...
