Monitoring data show that many landslides in the Three Gorges region, China, undergo step-like displacements in response to the managed, quasi-sinusoidal annual
The stability of the anchorage slope on the Baiyang Yangtze River Highway Bridge in Yi-chang, China, was investigated under different rainfall conditions using
A slope stability evaluation method is proposed combining group decision theory, the ana-lytic hierarchy process and fuzzy comprehensive evaluation. The index w
As an important part of the continental lithosphere, the continental lower crust can in-fluence and control many important geodynamic processes, which are of gr
The evolution of continental crust can be directly linked to the first-order supercontinent- superplume cycles. We demonstrate that: (1) a mantle-like oxygen is
Extensive USGS data tables and detailed, 1 m2 LiDAR surveys are used to determine the optimal power n that relates discharge (Q) to stage (h*) above channel bot
