The article explores how a specific landslide in the Three Gorges Reservoir was formed and its stability analyzed. By studying the Huang Lianshu landslide, researchers used terrain, survey, and test data to create geological models with different rainfall conditions. They found that the stability of the landslide was closely related to heavy rainstorms, with a sensitivity to 90mm of rainfall. This study provides insights into the mechanisms and prevention of similar landslides in the future.
