High and steep slopes in open pit mines used for ore production require careful monitoring to ensure stability and safeguard lives, property, and social welfare. Understanding the evolutionary characteristics of hazard sources within these slopes is crucial for effective slope management. This article presents a novel approach to identify the evolu...

Identifying the sources of sediments is of great significance in reconstructing Holocene paleoclimate evolution in the Beibu Gulf and in understanding the characteristics of regional responses to changes in global climate. The Holocene paleoclimatic evolutionary history of the Beibu Gulf was investigated by chronological, geochemical, and mineralog...

The relationship between the high-frequency time series of PM2.5 in the atmosphere and the air pollutants emitted by industrial firms is not yet fully understood. This study aimed to identify independent PM2.5 clustering regions in Shaanxi Province and to evaluate the spatio-temporal correlations of PM2.5 concentrations and pollutant emissions from...

The north-south striking landform perpendicular to the dominant collision zone between the Indian and Eurasian plates was constructed in east-southern Tibet (EST) during the Late Miocene. The building processes remain ambiguous, partly owing to the lack of recognition of crustal-scale architecture. Here we deployed an east-west-oriented 120 km-long...

Many people are killed by landslides due to earthquakes or severe rain, and structures and facilities built on or near slopes sustain significant damage. Such landslides on naturally occurring slopes can be large enough to utterly destroy towns or communities. Based on remote sensing and microtremor data, the area around Al Taif has been evaluated ...

With the implementation of the “Belt and Road” initiative, tunnel projects were designed in accordance with Russian design specifications and constructed by Chinese companies in countries along the route. Design companies and construction companies use different rock classification methods, which will increase the safety risk and cost of the tunnel...

In natural terrain scene UAV image matching, traditional feature point-based methods often have problems such as an unstable number of extracted feature points, difficulty in detecting feature points in weak texture areas, uneven distribution, and low robustness. Deep learning-based image matching methods can produce larger and more reasonably dist...
