Listening Device Provides Early Landslide（山崩；地滑；塌方）Warning
A device that provides early warning of a landslide by monitoring vibrations（振动）in soil is being tested
by UK researchers,The device could save thousands of lives each year by warning when an area should be
evacuated（疏散，撤走）,the scientists say. Such natural disasters are common in countries that experience
sudden, heavy rainfall (降雨，降雨量), and can also be triggered by earthquakes and even water
erosion（腐蚀，侵蚀）.
Landslides start when a few particles of soil or rock within a slope start to move,hut the early stages can
be hard to spot.Following this initial movement,"slopes can become unstable in a matter of hours or
minutes,"says Nell Dixon at Southborough University,UK. He says。warning system that monitors this
movement"might be enough to evacuate a block of flats or clear a road,and save lives".
The most common way to monitor a slope for signs of an imminent（即将发生的） landslide is to watch
for changes in its shape. Surveyors can do this by measuring aside directly,or sensors（传感器）sunk into
boreholes（钻孔，井眼）or fixed above ground can be used to monitor the shape of a slope. Slopes can,
however,change shape without triggering a landslide,so either method is prone to causing false alarms.Now
Dixon's team has developed a device that listens for the vibrations caused when particles begin moving
within a slope.
The device takes the form of a steel pipe dropped into a borehole in a slope.The borehole is filled in
with gravel（砾，沙砾，砾石）around the pipe to help transmit high-frequency vibrations generated by particles
within the slope.These vibrations pass up the tube and are picked up by a sensor on the surface.Software
analyses the vibration signal to determine whether a landslide may be imminent.
The device is currently being tested in a 6-metre-tall artificial clay embankment（堤岸）in Newcastle,
UK.Early results suggest it should provide fewer false positives than existing systems.Once it has been
carefully and thoroughly tested,the device could be used to create a complete early-warning system for
dangerous slopes.
"Locations with a significant risk of landslides could definitely benefit from a machine like this,"says
Adam Poulter,an expert at the British Red Ci?oss,"As long as it doesn't cost too much."But,Poulter adds
that an early-warning system may not be enough on its own."You need to have the human communication."
he says,"Making systems that get warnings to those who need them can be difficult."
