Abstract:According to the latest survey results of geological hazards, 471 potential geological hazard sites have been found in Yantai city, including collapse, landslide, debris flow, mining subsidence and karst collapse. Based on the background of geological hazards and the characteristics of rock soil mass types, through statistics of 471 hidden danger points of geological hazards, from the aspect of the number and density of geological hazards in different types of rock soil mass, the distribution characteristics of geological hazards have been analyzed. The relationship between geological hazards and the types of rock soil mass has been emphatically studied. It is showed that collapses, landslides and debris flows are mainly distributed in layered metamorphic rock formations, mining subsidence are distributed in intrusive rock formations, the type of rock soil mass structure in karst collapse development area is mainly Quaternary loose soil in the upper part, limestone in the lower part or binary structure of marble. According to the analysis on the correlation between geological hazards and the type of rock soil mass, geological hazards susceptibility zoning, monitoring and early warning can be carried out in a targeted way.
