Summary: | Nowadays, Landslide has been one of the most frequent and seriously widespread natural hazards all over the world. How landslides
can be monitored and predicted is an urgent research topic of the international landslide research community. Particularly, there is a
lack of high quality and updated landslide risk maps and guidelines that can be employed to better mitigate and prevent landslide
disasters in many emerging regions, including China. This paper considers national and regional scale, and introduces the framework
on combining the empirical and physical models for landslide evaluation. Firstly, landslide susceptibility in national scale is mapped
based on empirical model, and indicates the hot-spot areas. Secondly, the physically based model can indicate the process of slope
instability in the hot-spot areas. The result proves that the framework is a systematic method on landslide hazard monitoring and
early warning. |
