Abstract:Outburst floods triggered by breaching of landslide dams may cause severe loss of life and property downstream. Accurate identification and assessment of such floods, especially when they leading to secondary impacts, is critical. In 2018, the Baige landslide in the Tibetan Plateau twice blocked the Jinsha River, eventually resulting in a severe outburst flood. The Baige landslide remains active and it is possible that a breach happens again. Based on numerical simulation using a hydrodynamic model, remote sen… Show more
