Editorial Review

Book Description
A lavishly illustrated study of landslides and debris flows on the Loess Plateau of north-central China where dense rural population and human activity has greatly increased landslide hazard.

The Loess Plateau lies in the middle reaches of the Yellow River and there are a number of cities housing more than a million people. Landslides are triggered by heavy rainstorms and earthquakes have been a recurrent hazard in the loess terrain for over two millennia.

The contributors to this book set out with a number of goals including:

* establishing the role of bedrock relief in landsliding

* studying the nature of the hydrological system within the loess slopes

* characterising the modes of failure of the loess fabric

* producing a dynamically-based classification of loess landslides

* 'ultimately' establishing criteria for a simple warning system for loess slope failure, together with an advisory scheme for local population response to landslide warnings.

This book includes over forty colour maps unique in their content and coverage, showing for the first time the detailed distribution of landslides in the thick loess terrain of eastern Gansu Province, North China.

Editorial Review

Book Description
This book comprises the Proceedings of the International Conference on Landslide Risk Management, held in Vancouver, Canada and sponsored jointly by the Joint Technical Committee on Landslides and Engineered Slopes and the Vancouver Geotechnical Society. The first part contains state-of-the-art and invited lectures, prepared by teams of authors selected for their experience in specific topics. The second part is a selection of papers submitted to the conference, most of which serve as case history illustrations of projects on landslide risk management. This book is thus intended to serve as a reference presenting the current status of landslide risk management as viewed by international experts. ... Read more

Editorial Review

Product Description
Over the past decade there has been a gradual shift away from simply relying on engineering solutions to individual landslide problems, to the use of a variety of strategies to manage the problems over a broad area. Such alternative strategies include the use of building codes, land use planning controls, preventing water leakage, early warning systems and insurance schemes. This book addresses these developments and provides a multidisciplinary perspective on landslide management. Placing emphasis on the need to understand the scientific basis of landslide activity together with the legislative and administrative framework and the cultural background. Chapters include: Landslides and risk assessment; Landslide hazard assessment; Probablistic hazard assessment; Consequence assessment; Risk screening; Quantitative risk assessment; Risk acceptance criteria; Risk management; and Case examples. ...

Editorial Review

Book Description
Every year a landslide disaster occurs somewhere in Europe. Destructive events are fortunately infrequent but when they do occur they are often tragic in their effects. Europe is heavily populated and development is expanding into areas where natural events are more likely to happen. Landslide Recognition is written by specialists from several European institutions and is designed to portray the diagnostic features of landslides as they would appear in the field, on maps or in photographs. Brief descriptions are provided and some guidance is given in the area in which different landslide types might be expected. This book will assist planners, developers, engineers and earth scientists to recognise where a problem may exist and to diagnose what type of failure may occur. The correct investigations and remedial measures may then be applied. ... Read more
