Study on the Source of Debris Flow in the Northern Scenic Spot of Changbai Mountain Based on Multi-Source Data

Abstract

The northern scenic area of Changbai Mountain is a high-incidence area of debris flow disasters, which seriously threaten the safety of tourist’s lives and property. Monitoring debris flow and providing early warning is critical for timely avoidance. Monitoring the change of debris flow source is an effective way to predict debris flow, and the change of source can be reflected in the settlement deformation of the study area. The offset tracking technique (OT) is insensitive to the coherence of SAR images and can resist the decoherence of D-InSAR and SBSA-InSAR to a certain extent. It is a technical means for monitoring large gradient deformation. It has been widely used in the field of seismic activity, glaciers and landslides in recent years, but few scholars have applied this technique in the field of debris flow. In this paper, we use OT techniques in combination with field surveys, Google imagery and Sentinel-1 data to monitor surface deformation in the northern scenic area of Changbai Mountain in 2017 and use D-InSAR techniques to compare and complement the OT monitoring results. The results of this study show that for monitoring surface deformation in the study area after a mudslide, it is better to use both methods to determine the surface deformation in the study area rather than one, and that both methods have their own advantages and disadvantages and yet can complement each other. Finally, we have predicted the development trend of mudflows in the study area by combining the calculated single mudflow solids washout, which will help to improve the long-term monitoring and warning capability of mudflows in the study area. The study also enriches the application of offset-tracking technology and D-InSAR in the field of geohazard monitoring and provides new ideas and methods for the study of mudflow material source changes.

Deep Learning-based Study on Assessment and Enhancement Strategy for Geological Disaster Emergency Evacuation Capacity in Changbai Mountain North Scenic Area

“…Changbai Mountain, being the highest volcano in China, possesses a steep topography rendering it susceptible to landslides, particularly during periods of intense rainfall, thereby posing a threat to the surrounding area [9][10][11][12][13] . Situated in the southeastern mountainous region of Jilin Province, China, the Northern Changbai Mountain Scenic Area spans geographic coordinates of 127°28' to 128°16' east longitude and 41°42' to 42°25' north latitude.…”

“…In Figure 6, we used the results of existing research to identify areas of high vulnerability to collapse hazards (Yan et al, 2023), which are marked in red. The yellow area represents the scenic plank roads, the brown markers indicate the location of the parking lot, and the blue color indicates the river.…”

“…In Figure 8, we identified areas at high risk of debris flow based on the results of existing research, highlighting geographic areas prone to debris flows (Yan et al, 2023). Figure 8 illustrates seven debris flow gullies, with gullies 1, 2, and 4 having the most significant degree of debris flow risk.…”

“…Evaluation of emergency evacuation capacity for collapse hazards in the study area 5.2.2 Evaluation of emergency evacuation capacity for Debris Flow HazardsAs a natural hazard, debris flow hazards are characterized by the rapid flow of large quantities of sediment, stones, rocks, and water mixed together along mountain slopes or river valleys, usually accompanied by a high degree of destructiveness. Therefore, the establishment of effective early warning systems, monitoring measures, and emergency evacuation plans, along with the improvement of land management and the reduction of environmental damage, are key measures for effectively mitigating debris flow hazards.In Figure8, we identified areas at high risk of debris flow based on the results of existing research, highlighting geographic areas prone to debris flows(Yan et al, 2023). Figure8illustrates seven debris flow gullies, with gullies 1, 2, and 4 having the most significant degree of debris flow risk.…”
