The behavioral characteristics of slow-mover in urban waterfront space

The waterfront space is a specific and perfect open space for people to experience the city.Daily entertainment,leisure,shopping,sports and other activities can be carried out in the waterfront slow-motility space.There are three types of slow-mover in urban waterfront space namely walking,stop or stay,and riding.Analysis of their behavioral characteristics and the difference of different people can help to clarify the design requirements and produce a waterfront space that will better meets people’s functional needs.

Towards hydrometeorological thresholds of reservoir-induced landslide from subsurface strain observations

Synergistic multi-factor early warning of large-scale landslides is a crucial component of geohazard prevention and mitigation efforts in reservoir areas.Landslide forecasting and early warning based on surface displacements have been widely investigated.However,the lack of direct subsurface real-time observations limits our ability to predict critical hydrometeorological conditions that trigger landslide acceleration.In this paper,we leverage subsurface strain data measured by high-resolution fiber optic sensing nerves that were installed in a giant reservoir landslide in the Three Gorges Reservoir(TGR)region,China,spanning a whole hydrologic year since February 2021.The spatiotemporal strain profile has preliminarily identified the slip zones and potential drivers,indicating that high-intensity short-duration rainstorms controlled the landslide kinematics from an observation perspective.Considering the time lag effect,we reexamined and quantified potential controls of accelerated movements using a data-driven approach,which reveals immediate response of landslide deformation to extreme rainfall with a zero-day shift.To identify critical hydrometeorological rules in accelerated movements,accounting for the dual effect of rainfall and reservoir water level variations,we thus construct a landslide prediction model that relies upon the boosting decision tree(BDT)algorithm using a dataset comprising daily rainfall,rainfall intensity,reservoir water level,water level fluctuations,and slip zone strain time series.The results indicate that landslide acceleration is most likely to occur under the conditions of mid-low water levels(i.e.,<169.700 m)and large-amount and high-intensity rainfalls(i.e.,daily rainfall>57.9 mm and rainfall intensity>24.4 mm/h).Moreover,this prediction model allows us to update hydrometeorological thresholds by incorporating the latest monitoring dataset.Standing on the shoulder of this landslide case,our study informs a practical and reliable pathway for georisk early warning based on subsurface observations,particularly in the context of enhanced extreme weather events.
