RES2023-12: Considerations for Landslide and Debris
Flow Monitoring |
摘要: |
Landslides on highways are common geologic hazards affecting
transportation routes within the steep hillsides and thick soil cover of
the Cumberland Plateau, Ridge and Valley, and Appalachian Mountains
regions of Tennessee. In recent years, the area has been overwhelmed
by extreme weather events of high-intensity or prolonged rainfall, with
the highest amounts occurring in late winter and early spring, triggering
significant landslides. These unexpected events disturb state routes
and demand immediate attention, superseding other scheduled
projects; the repair cost creates tremendous strain on available
resources. An understanding of currently available techniques is
necessary to select high-risk slopes and deploy an appropriate system
to provide real-time movement data that can lead to an early warning
for future landslides. |
