LANDSLIDES IN CENTRAL CHILE (32.5°S 35°S): THE ROLE OF THE MEGA DROUGHT AND EARTHQUAKES IN HAZARD ASSESSMENT AND DISASTER PREVENTION
[vc_section el_class="container mx-auto align-items-center circle--pattern" css=".vc_custom_1648956589196{padding-top: 3rem !important;}"][vc_row el_class="pb-5"][vc_column][vc_wp_custommenu nav_menu="6"][uoh_breadcrumb_component automatic_breadcrumb="true"][uoh_title_component title_dropdown="big" title_decorator="true"]{{title}}[/uoh_title_component][vc_column_text css=""]Landslides are an important landscape forming process, providing the main mechanism for sediment release from slopes to permit transportation through the fluvial system. Thus, in advecting mountain chains, landslides play a key role in allowing the development of a long-term dynamic equilibrium between uplift and erosion, and in reducing slopes to their threshold angle. In doing so, landslides can directly impact humans. Unfortunately, fatalities and material losses caused by landslides concentrate in areas with high degrees of marginalization, which indicates that the most marginalized populations are the most prone to experience the negative effects of landslides. The total landslide death toll in Chile is 1010 between 1928 and 2017, 54% of them in Central Chile (32.5°S 35°S). A key question for the proposed research is what are the controlling factors affecting the temporal and spatial distribution of landslides in Central Chile (32.5°S-35°S)? The assessment of this question is relevant considering that landslides are an important natural hazard driven mainly by strong earthquakes and heavy rainfall, both triggers present in our country.
Chile is one of the most seismically active countries on Earth and strong earthquakes are often associated with a chain of cascading hazards, such as ground shaking, liquefaction, tsunamis, and coseismic landslides. In tectonically-active mountain areas, landslides are also a major cause of fatalities and economic losses during and after great magnitude earthquakes. In fact, in Chile, there are two broad types of earthquake-induced landslides: interplate/megathrust and shallow crustal earthquakes. For example, the Mw 8.8 interplate/megathrust Maule earthquake in 2010 with a rupture length of around 450 km produced more than 1200 landslides widely distributed between 32.5°S and 38°S. On the other hand, current climate trends and future projections show in addition to temperature rise a decrease in winter rainfall, an increase in the frequency of flood events, increased summer rainfall, and a rise in the torrential nature of storms. Indeed, precipitation has been reduced since 2010 in central Chile, with a 20-40% rainfall deficit. This period of 10 consecutive dry years has been called around the region the Mega Drought. All these environmental conditions are correlated with landslide activity in Central Chile. For the more recent example, on 30 January 2021, an intense and short rainfall, accompanied by hail, affected the Central Valley of Chile (34.4°S), producing catastrophic hail-debris flows affecting the local communities. According to official reports issued by the National Emergency Office, these hail-debris flows affected 200 people, leaving one house destroyed, 52 with significant damage, and another 20 with minor damage.
In recent years, landslide hazard and susceptibility maps have been developed mainly in metropolitan regions, nevertheless, none of them considered the evaluation of coseismic landslides. On the other hand, the occurrence of rainfall-induced landslides is poorly studied and probably underreported in Central Chile, especially in OHiggins and Maule regions. The purpose of this project is to identify the main characteristics of landslides that occur in Central Chile (32.5°-35°S), before and during a mega drought condition, in a zone affected by interplate/megathrust and shallow crustal earthquakes. It seeks to improve the understanding of their mechanics, temporal-spatial distribution, and geological controlling factors, obtaining quantifiable inputs for the development of a methodology for landslide hazard assessment that includes coseismic landslides and the effect of megadrought applicable to urban/territorial planning and disaster prevention strategies.[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row][/vc_section][vc_section css=".vc_custom_1649209804184{background-color: #f6faff !important;}" el_class="p-md-0 pt-md-5"][vc_row el_class="container mx-auto align-items-center p-md-0 pt-5"][vc_column el_class="p-0"][/vc_column][/vc_row][/vc_section][vc_section css=".vc_custom_1649210787516{background-color: #f6faff !important;}" el_class="p-md-0 pt-md-5 pb-md-5"][vc_row el_class="container mx-auto align-items-center"][vc_column][/vc_column][/vc_row][/vc_section]
