SPATIAL MODELS FOR THE DEFINITION OF LANDSLIDE SUSCEPTIBILITY AND LANDSLIDE HAZARD J.L. Zêzere Centre of Geographical Studies University of Lisbon FORM-OSE POST-GRADUATE TRAINING SCHOOL Living with hydro-geomorphological risks: from theory to practice 14-19 September 2004, Strasbourg - France CONCEPTUAL MODEL OF LANDSLIDE RISK Dangerous Phenomena Vulnerable Elements Rockfall Topple Slide Spread Flow …. Population Buildings Infrastructures Economic activities Cultural and environmental values …. Landslide hazard Vulnerability LANDSLIDE RISK adapted from Panizza (1990 ) Landslide Hazard = probability of occurrence of a potentially damaging phenomenon [landslide] within a given area and in a given period of time. 1. BASIC CONCEPTS Landslide Hazard: “the probability of occurrence of a potentially damaging phenomenon [landslide] within a given area and in a given period of time.” CRUCIAL ELEMENTS IN THE PREDICTION OF FUTURE LANDSLIDE BEHAVIOUR: 1) SPATIAL LOCATION (“WHERE”?) 2) TIME RECURRENCE (“WHEN”?) (Varnes et al., 1984) Rt = (E) (Rs) = (E) (H x V) 3) INTENSITY / MAGNITUDE (“HOW POWERFUL”?) TYPICAL METHODS USED TO DEFINE LANDSLIDE PRONE ZONES AT A REGIONAL SCALE: H – Hazard V – Vulnerability (degree of loss; 0-1) E – Vulnerable Elements (Value of...) Rs – Specific Risk (H x V) Rt – Total Risk 1)DIRECT APPROACH (Geomorphological) 2) INDIRECT APPROACHES (Quantitative and Semiquantitative) ¾ Knowledge-based (index) Applied over ¾ Statistical (data-driven) predefined terrain units ¾ Deterministic 1 BASIC ASSUMPTION OF BOTH DIRECT AND INDIRECT APPROACHES: FUTURE LANDSLIDES ARE MORE LIKELY TO OCCUR UNDER THE SAME GEOLOGICAL AND GEOMORPHOLOGICAL CONDITIONS THAT LED TO PAST SLOPE INSTABILITY. SUSCEPTIBILITY VS HAZARD Most regional landslide ‘hazard’ assessments (both direct and indirect) provide a ranking of terrain units only in terms of susceptibility (“spatial probability”), not including the temporal component of the hazard. “PAST AND PRESENT ARE KEYS TO THE FUTURE” KEYS FOR PREDICTION OF FUTURE LANDSLIDES: DIRECT APPROACH Gabbione, Pavia Italy Rossetti (1997) ¾ MAPPING PAST AND RECENT SLOPE MOVEMENTS ¾ IDENTIFICATION AND MAPPING OF THE CONDITIONING OR PREPARATORY FACTORS OF SLOPE INSTABILITY ASSESSMENT OF LANDSLIDE SUSCEPTIBILITY Direct Landslide Susceptibility Assessment (Calhandriz Area) LANDSLIDE SUSCEPTIBILITY Expression of the likelihood that a landslide will occur in an area based on the local terrain conditions, not including the return period or the probability of occurrence of the instability processes. 2 Indirect Landslide Susceptibility Assessment (Information Value Method) FROM LANDSLIDE SUSCEPTIBILITY TO LANDSLIDE HAZARD By definition, a hazard map should include an evaluation of the probability of occurrence of new landslides, thus implying the consideration of a time dimension. In the case of rainfall induced landslides the statistical analysis of rainfall data may enable both the definition of the triggering threshold and calculation of the recurrence interval. UNCERTAINTIES AND DRAWBACKS 1) DATA LIMITATIONS ¾ UNCERTAINTIES IN LANDSLIDE IDENTIFICATION AND MAPPING ¾ QUALITY, QUANTITY AND RELEVANCE OF THE AVAILABLE INFORMATION: 9 The discontinuous nature in space and time of slope failures 9 The lack of a complete historical data concerning the frequency of landslides 9 The difficulty of identifying the causes, the triggering factors and cause-effect relationship 2) MODEL SHORTCOMINGS ¾ EFFECTIVENESS AND RELIABILITY OF THE AVAILABLE MODELS ¾ DIFFICULTY IN EXTRAPOLATION OF LOCAL DATA TO LARGER AREAS ITC, ILWIS Manual 3 Translational movements susceptibility assessment (Information Value Method) 3) ADDITIONAL PROBLEM ¾ THE DIFFERENT SPATIAL INCIDENCE OF DIFFERENT TYPES OF SLOPE MOVEMENTS, NORMALLY RELATED TO DISTINCT THRESHOLDS CONDITIONS CONCERNING PREPARATORY AND TRIGGERING FACTORS. ASSESSMENT OF LANDSLIDE HAZARD FOR EACH TYPE OF SLOPE MOVEMENTS Indirect Landslide Susceptibility Assessment (Information Value Method) Shallow translational slides susceptibility assessment (Information Value Method) Rotational movements susceptibility assessment (Information Value Method) VALIDATION OF SUSCEPTIBILITY AND HAZARD WHY TO VALIDATE ? Evaluation of the predictive power of models with respect to future slope movements Strictly speaking, validation of the prediction of future landslides is only possible with the ‘wait and see’ procedure. 4 24 0 Very high II High III Moderate ALARM PROJECT FANHÕES-TRANCÃO TEST SITE Spain Lisbon 28 0 I Study area Ta g Susceptibility classes: EDP REGIONAL FRAMEWORK Oporto r 0 20 0 24 Landslide susceptibility assessment in the Trancão river valley (Direct approach, 1988) us riv e 16 0 12 0 160 240 200 0 12 Atlantic Ocean 280 IV 200 Low 1 240 160 CREL motorway (1995) December 1995 / January 1996 landslides 2 • Monocline structure dipping 5° to 25° to S and SE. • Heterogeneous bedrock (limestones, sandstones, basalts, volcanic tuffs, marls, clays) dating from upper Jurassic to Miocene. • Cuestas, strongly dissected by fluvial cutting. • Maximum altitude = 350m; steep slopes on catacline valleys. 200 0 120 80 200 m 160 Fanhões valley Trancão valley VALIDATION OF SUSCEPTIBILITY AND HAZARD VALIDATION FOR WHAT ?
