Rainfall Event–Duration Thresholds for Landslide Occurrences in China

open access: yesWater (Switzerland), 2020
A rainfall threshold for landslide occurrence at a national scale in China has rarely been developed in the early warning system for landslides. Based on 771 landslide events that occurred in China during 1998–2017, four groups of rainfall ...

Modeling rainfall thresholds for landslide analysis

2008
In essence, the task at hand is to successfully analyze landslide behavior by using a deterministic analysis of rainfall thresholds. An alternative approach for defining rainfall thresholds uses deterministic models for rainfall infiltration and slope stability testing.

Rainfall Thresholds Triggering Landslides: A Review

2020
In different physiographic and climatic regions worldwide, rainfall is recognized as one of the most common triggering factor for landslides causing severe damage to property and lives of large number of people every year. Urbanization in case of hilly areas has led to the need of detailed study and research in the field of landslides triggered by ...

Rainfall thresholds for landsliding in the Himalayas of Nepal

Geomorphology, 2004
Landsliding of the hillslope regolith is an important source of sediment to the fluvial network in the unglaciated portions of the Himalayas of Nepal. These landslides can produce abrupt increases of up to three orders of magnitude in the fluvial sediment load in less than a day.

Rainfall Threshold Curves Extraction by Considering Rainfall-Runoff Model Uncertainty

Arabian Journal for Science and Engineering, 2014
Flood warning systems can be useful for decision makers allowing them to adopt required initiatives for prevention or mitigation of life and property losses. Rainfall threshold curves can be employed when using these systems. Having employed these curves, it is possible to compare observed/forecasted rainfall with a rainfall threshold curve notifying ...

Rainfall thresholds for the initiation of landslides in central and southern Europe

Meteorology and Atmospheric Physics, 2007
We review rainfall thresholds for the initiation of landslides world wide and propose new empirical rainfall thresholds for the Central European Adriatic Danubian South-Eastern Space (CADSES) area, located in central and southern Europe. One-hundred-twenty-four empirical thresholds linking measurements of the event and the antecedent rainfall ...

Threshold Models for Rainfall and Convection: Deterministic versus Stochastic Triggers

SIAM Journal on Applied Mathematics, 2015
This paper investigates stochastic models whose dynamics switch depending on the state/regime of the system. Such models have been called “hybrid switching diffusions” and exhibit “sliding dynamics” with noise. Here the aim is an application to models of rainfall, convection, and water vapor, where two states/regimes are considered: precipitation and ...

Regionalization of rainfall thresholds: an aid to landslide hazard evaluation

Environmental Geology, 1998
Rainfall, soil properties, and morphology are major factors controlling shallow landsliding. A series of meteorological events that triggered soil slips in northern Italy were studied to define rainfall thresholds and to evaluate a possible regionalization.

Reliability of rainfall threshold for pyroclastic debris flows

2009
This paper reports the results of a theoretical analysis that aims to investigate the reliability of rainfall threshold for debris flows in partially saturated pyroclastic soils. The study refers to a typical pyroclastic cover in the area of Campania, Italy, which is often affected by these phenomena.
