Spatial evolution mechanism of landslide in loess gully basement dump

open access: yesMeitan kexue jishu, 2023
External dump is the inevitable outcome of surface mining. Because of the special landform, some open-pit coal mines in the middle and west of China build their dump sites on the loess base with gully development, forming the loess gully base dump with ...
