Particle distribution characteristics of rock avalanche and the interaction between rock avalanche and houses based on image recognition

地质科技通报, 2021
Due to the high concealment, short-lived time and low predictability of the rock avalanche, it is difficult to visually observe the process of it. In order to study the dynamic characteristics and the catastrophicto houses of rock avalanche, this paper ...

The December 2008 Crammont rock avalanche, Mont Blanc massif area, Italy [PDF]

Natural Hazards and Earth System Sciences, 2011
We describe a 0.5 Mm³ rock avalanche that occurred in 2008 in the western Alps and discuss possible roles of controlling factors in the context of current climate change. The source is located between 2410 m and 2653 m a.s.l.

Geomorphological characteristics and the kinematic process of the Ganheba rock–ice avalanche in Yulong Mountain, China

Frontiers in Earth Science, 2023
Rock–ice avalanches have increased in recent years due to global warming. On 12 March 2004, a massive failure of rock mass (9.1×106 m3) originated on the south slope of Yulong Mountain in Yunnan Province and eventually formed the Ganheba rock–ice ...

Engineering geological characteristics and failure mechanics of Jure rock avalanche, Nepal

Geoenvironmental Disasters, 2023
Introduction The rock avalanches are a frequent and disruptive phenomenon in the Himalayas and other mountain chains. To minimize future losses, it is essential to investigate the engineering geological causative factors and mechanism of these mass ...

Constraining the Age and Source Area of the Molveno landslide Deposits in the Brenta Group, Trentino Dolomites (Italy)

Frontiers in Earth Science, 2020
Rock avalanches are low frequency natural hazards that can alter landscape morphology, and constraining the timing, volume and emplacement dynamics of pre-historic rock avalanches is crucial for understanding the hazards posed by these events.

The Plata Rock Avalanche: Deciphering the Occurrence of This Huge Collapse in a Glacial Valley of the Central Andes (33° S)

Frontiers in Earth Science, 2020
This paper reviews the genesis of a chaotic deposit in the Blanco River basin (BRB) in the Argentine Andes that has been interpreted to be either of debris flow or glacial origin.

The Anomalously Old Bush Stream Rock Avalanche and Its Implications for Landslide Inventories in Dynamic Landscapes

Frontiers in Earth Science, 2020
Previous dating of rock slope failures in most glaciated mountain chains has revealed almost exclusively young, mostly Holocene ages. In this study, a rock avalanche in the glaciated Rangitata Basin in Canterbury, New Zealand is mapped, described, and ...
