Model Construction of InSAR-based Rainfall Thresholds for Landslide Hazards in Yanhe Basin, Chinese Loess Plateau by WANG Zhenliang, CHEN Manyu, ZHAO Jianlin, YUAN Ke, YANG Jie, ZHANG Chen

“…When the attenuation coefficient of effective rainfall in the current period (K) was equal to 1, the correlation between the effective cumulative rainfall in nine days (the rainfall on the day of landslide occurrence and the rainfall in the previous eight days) and the landslide shape variable was the strongest. (3) The expressions corresponding to the E-D, I-D and E-I rainfall threshold models are E=12.19D0.661, I=10.66D-0.255 and E=3.84I1.141, respectively. [Conclusion] The rainfall threshold model can provide a scientific basis and reference for meteorological early warning of landslide hazards in the Yanhe Basin of the Chinese Loess Plateau.…”
