Special Issue Information

Dear Colleagues,

Amidst intensifying global concern over the growing prevalence of hydrological hazards, our Special Issue aims to offer a cutting-edge exploration of this dynamic field. Drawing upon the prowess of multi-source remote sensing techniques, we aim to provide a comprehensive overview of the current research status and prospects in this domain. The current research landscape in this area is rich and diverse, leveraging advancements in satellite imagery, unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs), and ground-based sensors. These multi-source remote sensing platforms offer unprecedented spatial and temporal resolutions, enabling us to monitor, assess, and predict hydrological hazards with unprecedented accuracy.

This Special Issue aims to gather leading researchers from the fields of remote sensing, hydrology, geospatial analysis, and disaster management to share their expertise and insights. By promoting interdisciplinary collaborations, we aim to further advance the scientific understanding of hydrological hazards and develop more effective management strategies. We believe that this Special Issue will serve as a valuable resource for researchers seeking to address the pressing challenge of hydrological hazards in today's changing climate. We invite you to contribute original research, reviews, and case studies to this endeavour.

Strong earthquakes often bring amounts of loose material, disrupting the balance of material transportation within a watershed and severely impacting the restoration of the ecological environment and human safety downstream. Therefore, it is crucial to identify the frequency and scale of these debris flow events, as well as to explore their long-term development and impact on internal and external channels. Using multi-source remote sensing images from four perspectives, hillslope, channel, accumulation fan, and their relationship with the mainstream, we reconstructed a debris flow event dataset from 2008 to 2020, explored a method for identifying these events, and analyzed their impacts on channels and accumulation fans in Mozi Gully affected by the Wenchuan earthquake. Loose matter was predominantly found in areas proximate to the channel and at lower elevations during debris flow events. Alterations in channel width, accumulation fans downstream, and their potential to obstruct rivers proved to be vital for identifying the large scale of debris flow event. Finally, we encapsulated the evolution patterns and constraints of post-earthquake debris flows. Determination in frequency and scale could offer valuable supplementary data for scenario hypothesis parameters in post-earthquake disaster engineering prevention and control. Full article

With global climate change and increased human activities, landslides increasingly threaten human safety and property. Precisely extracting large-scale spatiotemporal information on landslides is crucial for risk management. However, existing methods are either locally based or have coarse temporal resolution, which is insufficient for regional analysis. In this study, spatiotemporal information on landslides was extracted using multiple remote sensing data from Emilia, Italy. An automated algorithm for extracting spatial information of landslides was developed with NDVI datasets. Then, we established a landslide prediction model based on a hydrometeorological threshold of three-day soil moisture and three-day accumulated rainfall. Based on this model, the locations and dates of rainfall-induced landslides were identified. Then, we further matched these identified locations with the extracted landslides from remote sensing data and finally determined the occurrence time. This approach was validated with recorded landslides events in Emilia. Despite some temporal clustering, the overall trend matched historical records, accurately reflecting the dynamic impacts of rainfall and soil moisture on landslides. The temporal bias for 87.3% of identified landslides was within seven days. Furthermore, higher rainfall magnitude was associated with better temporal accuracy, validating the effectiveness of the model and the reliability of rainfall as a landslide predictor. Full article
