Abstract:Due to complex geological,geomorphic,and hydro-meteorological conditions,numerous geo-hazards occur in Huili County. The "8?30" earthquake induced a large number of new geo-hazards,as well as the intensification of old hazards in Huili County. With the help of sending geo-hazard census list,remote sensing,and expert inquiry,55 new geo-hazards triggered by the "8?30" earthquake are identified,including 8 rock-falls,25 landslides,2 debris-flows,and 20 unstable slopes,which are mostly in the south of the county,particularly in the region of Chinsha River. Based on the results from survey,the zoning on susceptibility level of geological disasters in Huili County is made in a unit grid of 2 km×2 km. The areas of high-susceptibility,mid-susceptibility,and low-susceptibility occupy 42.4%,37.1%,and 20.5% of the total area of the county,respectively. Additionally,some countermeasures are proposed,including setting a network of disaster prevention and mitigation,making the emergency treatment of some sudden hazards or the comprehensive treatment of important geological hazards,and enhancing the preventive management of geo-environmental disasters.
