The invention discloses a shallow soil
landslide early-warning method in the red-
bed area and belongs to the technical field of
landslide prevention and
control engineering. The method comprises the steps of adopting a
landslide mass and a non-landslide
mass in the red-
bed area as a respondent, measuring a gradients alpha of the landslide
mass and the non-landslide mass, an area A of the landslide mass, an upper gradient beta, an upper area Au, a transverse left gradient theta 1, a transverse right gradient theta 2, a transverse left area AL, a transverse right area AR and a terrace area A' on the landslide mass; calculating a gradient factor S, an upper-side factor U, a two-side factor C, a
terrain factor T, and a rainfall factor R; calculating a critical value Cr for inducing the shallow soil landslide in the red-
bed area and conducting the condition judgment; determining the landslide level, and sending an early-warning
signal. According to the technical scheme of the invention, the combined effects of two factors, namely the
terrain factor and the rainfall factor, are fully considered to obtain the critical value Cr for inducing the shallow soil landslide mechanism. Therefore, not only the landslide early-warning is high in accuracy, but also the early-warning reaction time is greatly shortened. Therefore, the disaster prevention applicability is improved.
