Characterization of pre-failure deformation and evolution of a large earthflow using InSAR monitoring and optical image interpretation

Zhang Yi et al.

Summary: The study discusses the reactivation of the Yahuokou earthflow in July 2019 and presents the analysis of pre-failure deformation patterns using InSAR monitoring and high-resolution optical images. It was found that the initiation of the earthflow is closely related to road construction, intense rainfall, and seismic activity, with different types of pre-failure deformation patterns useful for predicting failure time and improving landslide early warning and hazard assessment.

A multidisciplinary approach for landslide residual risk assessment: the Pomarico landslide (Basilicata Region, Southern Italy) case study

Angela Perrone et al.

Summary: This study employed various geophysical methods to investigate a large landslide in Pomarico, Italy, revealing features of the landslide, stratigraphic contacts, and stability changes. The results showed the presence of multiple degraded scarps and an anthropic surface layer within the stratification. Additionally, natural and anthropogenic caves were identified in the sand layers.

PS-InSAR-Based Validated Landslide Susceptibility Mapping along Karakorum Highway, Pakistan

Muhammad Afaq Hussain et al.

Summary: The research involved the comparison of XGBoost and RF models to analyze the association between causative parameters and landslides along the Karakorum Highway. A comprehensive landslide inventory and susceptibility mapping were conducted, with PS-InSAR technique used to investigate deformation movement in susceptible zones. The XGBoost method showed superior accuracy in creating a new LSM model for the area, which may assist in mitigating landslide disaster and ensuring safe operation of the highway.

Integration of Sentinel-1 and ALOS/PALSAR-2 SAR datasets for mapping active landslides along the Jinsha River corridor, China

Xiaojie Liu et al.

Summary: Active landslides along the Jinsha River corridor pose serious threats and attract widespread attention due to their large scale, number, and potential disaster chain characteristics. Conventional InSAR-based methods face challenges in mapping landslides efficiently in this region, leading to the development of a new procedure integrating surface deformation and geomorphological features for large-area landslide mapping.

Semi-automated regional classification of the style of activity of slow rock-slope deformations using PS InSAR and SqueeSAR velocity data

Chiara Crippa et al.

Summary: The study combines original inventory of slow rock-slope deformations with PS-InSAR and SqueeSAR datasets to develop a semi-automated approach for characterizing and classifying slow rock-slope deformations in Lombardia. By analyzing displacement rate distributions and using machine learning classification, the study identifies groups of slow rock-slope deformations with consistent styles of activity, providing objective and cost-effective support for land planning and infrastructure integrity prioritization.

Rock glacier inventory, permafrost probability distribution modeling and associated hazards in the Hunza River Basin, Western Karakoram, Pakistan

Javed Hassan et al.

Summary: This study compiled the first complete inventory of rock glaciers in the Hunza Basin, western Karakoram, and modeled the probability distribution of permafrost. The analysis showed that destabilized rock glaciers were closely linked to the 0 degrees C isotherm, causing significant damage to infrastructure in the region. Improved policies related to disaster risk reduction and hazard mitigation can be achieved through quantifying rock glacier dynamics and permafrost in the area.

Holistic Multidimensional Vulnerability Assessment: An empirical investigation on rural communities of the Hindu Kush Himalayan region, Northern Pakistan

Zainab Khalid et al.

Summary: This study proposes a modified multidimensional vulnerability assessment method, introducing 'gender' as a sixth non-static dimension of vulnerability. The results reveal that rural communities in the Pakistani Hindu Kush Himalayan Region are highly vulnerable to natural hazards in all dimensions, mainly due to low economic status, inadequate infrastructure, poor risk perception, and gender-exclusive plans.

Study on the Creep-Sliding Mechanism of the Giant Xiongba Ancient Landslide Based on the SBAS-InSAR Method, Tibetan Plateau, China

Changbao Guo et al.

Summary: By analyzing the surface deformation characteristics of the Xiongba ancient landslide, two large strong deformation zones were discovered, describing the geohazards associated with landslides on the western bank of the Jinsha River. Influenced by river erosion and erosion at the foot of the landslide, the Xiongba ancient landslide is undergoing continuous creep-sliding, which may lead to a hazard chain.

District-level disaster risk and vulnerability in the Northern mountains of Pakistan

Siddique Ullah Baig et al.

Summary: Mountain systems in Northern Pakistan are highly vulnerable due to their low natural capacity and lack of alternatives to cope with natural stresses. The study shows that districts with moderate exposure in the mountains but lower coping capacity are likely to face calamities due to specific constraints. This approach aims to explore the relationship between hazards, disaster likelihood, and coping capacities of mountain communities.

Geophysical investigations of a potential landslide area in Mayoon, Hunza District, Gilgit-Baltistan, Pakistan

Qasim Ur Rehman et al.

Summary: The Mayoon landslide in the Hunza District has gained significance in recent years due to its rapid activation and fast slip rate. The area is characterized by high earthquake hazards and the subsurface is interpreted as a two-layer model, with the top layer consisting of loose fragmented material and the bottom layer comprising foliated metamorphic bedrock with faults and fractures.
