A large-scale obliquely inclined bedding rockslide, activated by a heavy rainstorm, occurred on July 8, 2020, at 7:05 (UTC?+?8) in Shiban Village, Songtao Miao Autonomous County, Guizhou Province, China. The loss of life in this event was greatly reduced owing to the local warning system for rainstorm-induced geohazards. To understand the failure characteristics, triggering factors, the genetic mechanism of the landslide, the geomorphological features, geological characteristics, hydrological conditions, and rainfall characteristics were systematically studied by a synthetic approach including field investigations, satellite imagery, unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) photography, laboratory tests, and rainfall data statistics. The results indicated that the interface between the soft and hard rock, the well-developed joints, and the free face in front of the slope constituted the boundaries of this landslide. The concave topography at the back and southern edge of the landslide, the bare ground, and the cataclastic structure of the rock mass provided favorable conditions for the collection or infiltration of rainwater. The concentrated rainstorm was the direct trigger for the landslide, which led to a rapid inflow and retention of rainfall in the landslide through favorable landform and geological conditions. The groundwater recharge that cannot be drained in time caused the mechanical deterioration of rock mass and induced a rapid increase in pore water pressure in the landslide. Moreover, the water level of the Ganlong River at the toe of the slope also rose rapidly, and the uplift pressure in front of the slope increased accordingly. Under the combined action of these adverse factors, the overall anti-sliding force of the slope was less than the sliding force, finally resulting in the landslide. Remarkably, the local warning system for rainstorm-induced geohazards successfully forecasted the landslide, but the shortcoming is that the forecast time in advance is short. Nevertheless, the prediction has significantly reduced human casualties and provided valuable experience for the prediction of this type of landslide.
相似文献暴雨是诱发滑坡的重要因素之一,但目前对于暴雨作用下滑坡变形响应机制的研究仍不充分。该文以三峡库区白家包滑坡为例,在滑坡详细监测数据的基础上,分析了暴雨作用下白家包滑坡的变形响应特征;采用滑坡互信息量方法揭示了暴雨作用下降雨及库水位变动对白家包滑坡变形的影响规律。结果表明:白家包滑坡变形主要受库水位变动影响,坡表裂缝扩张主要受降雨影响;暴雨是诱发滑坡加速变形及边界处的坡表裂缝快速扩张的主要因素。该文的研究方法可推广到其它多条件联合作用下滑坡响应规律的分析,为类似暴雨作用下水库滑坡防灾减灾提供一定参考。
