A great mountain seismic often triggers a large number of co-seismic landslides, causing direct damage to local vegetation cover and growth. As an important indicator of landslide activity intensity, the vegetation recovery is of great significance for ...

Brittle Creep as a Mechanism for Postseismic Relaxation in Upper Crustal Dolomite Marble
Abstract In many locations, earthquakes in the upper crust occur in carbonate rocks, whose deformation affects aftershock sequences and postseismic relaxation. We investigate the stress relaxation process and strain evolution in Jinping dolomite marble (porosity <0.2%) subjected to multi‐stage stress ramp‐relaxation cycles under confining pressures of ...

Abstract Landslide dam failures can trigger catastrophic outburst floods in downstream regions. During cascading dams' failure, a notable amplification in flood magnitude is often observed. However, the mechanisms and influencing factors behind this amplification effect remain unclear.

Background Children often experience both posttraumatic stress (PTS) and depression after potentially traumatic events (PTEs). Latent class analyses (LCAs) identify subgroups with different co‐occurring symptoms, but little is known about what predicts transitions between these symptom classes over time. Analyzing these transitions could reveal factors

Temporal variation of gravity field before and after Wenchuan Ms8. 0 earthquake
Absolute and relative gravity data during 1998 to 2008 were used to study gravity field and temporal variation in the North–south seismic-belt region, and their correlation with seismic activities before and after Wenchuan Ms8. 0 earthquake. The temporal

ABSTRACT China's poverty alleviation campaign is significant. Over the past four decades, the number of people in China living below the international extreme‐poverty line fell by close to 800 million, accounting for nearly three‐quarters of the global reduction in extreme poverty.

We have examined the water level data from 16 wells in Sichuan province, China, recorded before the Wenchuan Ms8.0 earthquake occurred in 2008. We found that the data of 5 among these wells exhibit possible precursory anomalies, which are respectively ...
