Field Model Experiments and Numerical Analysis of Rainfall-Induced Shallow Loess Landslides

Engineering Geology, 2021
Abstract Shallow loess landslide induced by rainfall is a widespread form of slope failure on the Loess Plateau of China. The hydrological response, evolutionary mechanism and failure processes of unsaturated loess slopes under precipitation in a field scale are currently lacking.

Telling a Different Story: The Promote Role of Vegetation in the Initiation of Shallow Landslides During Rainfall on the Chinese Loess Plateau

Geomorphology, 2020
Abstract Vegetation is widely used for controlling landslides around the world; however, rainfall-induced shallow landslides occur frequently on vegetation-covered slopes on the Chinese Loess Plateau during the rainy season. To probe this phenomenon, we conducted on-site investigations and measurements in the Nanxiaohegou catchment on the Loess ...

Spatial Variation in Geotechnical Properties and Topographic Attributes on the Different Types of Shallow Landslides in a Loess Catchment, China

European Journal of Environmental and Civil Engineering, 2014
Shallow landslides play an important role in influencing topographic attributes and geotechnical properties. The landslides inventory is mapped using global position system (GPS) and field mapping. Three types of landslides, i.e. slide, creep and fall, are shown in the landslide inventory. Based on a post-landsliding digital elevation model (DEM), main

Quantifying and Modeling Post-Failure Sediment Yields From Laboratory-Scale Soil Erosion and Shallow Landslide Experiments With Silty Loess

Geomorphology, 2011
Rainfall events on steep hillslopes can cause both soil erosion and shallow landslides. These processes interact with each other and need to be studied in an integrated way to understand hillslope sediment yields. The main aim of this research is to study post-failure sediment yield following landslides that alter local slope gradients.

Slow surface subsidence and its impact on shallow loess landslides in a coal mining area

CATENA, 2022
Abstract Surface subsidence caused by underground coal mining affects the hillslope stability conditions. However, few studies have focused on the coupling relationship between slow surface subsidence and landslide occurrences. A detailed landslide and fissure inventory in a coal mining area in Shaanxi Province, China, was produced based on ...

Prediction of rainfall‐induced shallow landslides in the Loess Plateau, Yan'an, China, using the TRIGRS model

Earth Surface Processes and Landforms, 2016
AbstractIn this work, a transient rainfall infiltration and grid‐based regional slope‐stability model (TRIGRS) was implemented in a case study of Yan'an City, Northwest China. In this area, widespread shallow landslides were triggered by the 12 July 2013 exceptional rainstorm event.
