Multi-Factor Rainfall Thresholds (MF-RT) for shallow slip prediction based on field monitoring [PDF]

E3S Web of Conferences
Flow-like landslides initiated as soil slips are commonly triggered by heavy rainfall infiltrating granular and partially saturated slopes. Field monitoring of suction and water content provides valuable insights into slope responses to hydraulic loads ...

Estimation of TRMM rainfall for landslide occurrences based on rainfall threshold analysis

International Journal of Electrical and Computer Engineering (IJECE), 2020
Landslide can be triggered by intense or prolonged rainfall. Precipitation data obtained from ground-based observation is very accurate and commonly used to do analysis and landslide prediction. However, this approach is costly with its own limitation due to lack of density of ground station, especially in mountain area.

Intracrystalline Void‐Mediated Toughening of Brittle Crystals in Quail Eggshells

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
In quail eggshells, the high density and disordered arrangement of intracrystalline voids inhibit lattice cleavage, suppress long‐range crack propagation, and promote deformation twinning and quasi‐plasticity, serving as an essential toughening motif. We show that these voids remain within a narrow subcritical size range and therefore predominantly do ...

A susceptibility-based rainfall threshold approach for landslide occurrence [PDF]

Natural Hazards and Earth System Sciences, 2018
Abstract. Rainfall threshold determination is a pressing issue in the landslide scientific community. While main improvements have been made towards more reproducible techniques for the identification of triggering conditions for landsliding, the now well-established rainfall intensity or event – duration thresholds for landsliding suffer from several ...

Revised Rainfall Threshold in the Indonesian Landslide Early Warning System

Geosciences, 2022
Landslides are one of the most disastrous natural hazards that frequently occur in Indonesia. In 2017, Balai Sabo developed an Indonesia Landslide Early Warning System (ILEWS) by utilizing a single rainfall threshold for an entire nation, leading to inaccuracy in landslide predictions.

Ultra‐White Elastomeric Coatings for Daytime Radiative Cooling

Advanced Materials Technologies, EarlyView.
Passive daytime radiative cooling meets elasticity in a new class of ultra‐white silicone coatings. Combining high solar reflectance with strong sky‐window emission, they hold surfaces below ambient temperature under full sunlight while remaining flexible and stretchable. This combination of cooling performance and mechanical flexibility enables energy‐

Rainfall thresholds and flood warning: an operative case study [PDF]

Natural Hazards and Earth System Sciences, 2009
Abstract. An operative methodology for rainfall thresholds definition is illustrated, in order to provide at critical river section optimal flood warnings. Threshold overcoming could produce a critical situation in river sites exposed to alluvial risk and trigger the prevention and emergency system alert.

Satellite Rainfall Estimates For Debris Flow Prediction: An Evaluation Based On Rainfall Accumulation–Duration Thresholds

, 2017
Rainfall thresholds are often used in early warning systems to identify rainfall conditions that, when reached or exceeded, are likely to result in debris flows. Rain gauges are typically used for the definition of these thresholds.
