A study published in Remote Sensing used multi-temporal remote sensing optical imaging to investigate the deformation characteristics of landslides and their evolution pattern. The analysis and identification of landslide hazards contribute to their prevention and provide a foundation for the early detection and investigation of similar incidents.
Checks of storage areas in wet weather
Checks for water leaks in storage areas are to be made during and up to a week after any period of heavy or continuous rainfall. Preservation Staff are rostered each month to carry out checks. Stack and Special Collections staff working in the storage areas are also responsible for making the checks. The Collections Disaster Coordinator and Preservation Services Staff will coordinate checks through phone and personal contact.
If any problems are found Building and Security Services Help Deks are to be advised immediately.
During periods of rain, particularly heavy or continuous rain or hail storms, Stack supervisors and Collection Managers listed in section 1.6 will check for leaks and advise Building and Security Services Branch and the Collection Disaster Coordinator of any problems.
