This book presents the research results on landslide disaster mitigation in Three Gorges Reservoir, China. It consists of three parts. Regional properties of landslides in this area, case studies about some typical landslides, and new methodologies applied in this area. It provides useful information to academics, practitioners, and university students working on landslide disaster mitigation, especially for large engineering projects. It can also be used as an information source for geo-hazards in the Three Gorges Reservoir Area.

This book includes the recent 10-year achievement of geo-disaster mitigation by leading Asian scientists from Japan, China, Indonesia, Korea, Iran and Far East of Russia. Case studies on recent occurred geo-disasters in Asian region have been presented. The forming mechanics of hazards such as earthquake and landslide are deeply discussed, and the disaster mitigation technology for building and pipeline safety, landslide hazard assessment and risk management are introduced.
