灾害

Yuan Xiaosu, vice-minister of land and resources, said during a televised meeting Wednesday: Heavy rainfall could lead to geological disasters, such as mudflows and landslides.

国土资源部副部长袁晓苏在周三的电视电话会议上说到，&大量的降雨可能导致像泥石流和山体滑坡这样的地质灾害&。

On the basis of previous research and the authors' field investigations,it is thought that the complex geological structures,strong crust movements and rivers erosions,frequent earthquakes,abundant loose deposits,favorable geomorphology,well-developed modern glaciers and plentiful precipitation are the principal causes of triggering frequent mudflows in the study area.

根据前人的成果以及作者的实地调查，认为复杂的地质构造、强烈的地壳运动和河流切割、频繁的地震、丰富的松散堆积物、有利的地形地貌、现代冰川以及丰沛的降雨是研究区泥石流灾害频繁发生的主要原因。

With increasing extent and intensity of human activities, the rockfalls and their induced hazards have become more and more prominent, especially in mountainous regions.

随着人类活动的广度和力度不断加大，多山地带的滚石问题越来越突出，致使有关滚石灾害及其防治方法的研究也逐步得到重视。

Other hazards during earthquakes include rockfalls, ground settling, and falling trees or tree branches.

地震造成的其他灾害包括石块崩落、地面下陷、树木倒地或枝条散落。

Rockfalls are the frequent engineering disasters in capital construction in mountain areas. The mechanism, simulation, analysis and prevention of rockfalls, especially rockfalls in high-steep rock slope engineering, increasely draw people's great attention.

边坡滚石是山区基本建设中经常遇到的一种工程灾害，边坡尤其是高陡岩质边坡工程中滚石产生的机理、模拟、分析与防护越来越受到关注。

Wawu Mountain Hydropower Station is the first cascaded one in the Zhougong River ,which is branch of the Qingyi river. The geohazards about the banks of reservoir are landsides, debris flows, rockfalls and so on. Therefore, how to evaluate these geohazards and geological environment of the reservoir is important to prove scientific basis to the engineering.

四川瓦屋山水电站工程是青衣江一级支流周公河上游第一个大型梯级电站，瓦屋山水电站库岸有崩塌、滑坡、泥石流等多种自然灾害类型，如何评价这些地质灾害的危险性以及瓦屋山水电站的地质环境质量，将为瓦屋山水电站建设用地审批提供科学依据。

But even in China many people will have attributed this disaster to an "act of God" rather than a foul-up by the Politburo.

即使这样大多数中国人，当灾害发生的时候，都宁愿选择相信那是天意而不是因为政治局的管理不当。

Therefore emphasis should be given to the reduction of vulnerability in urban areas, which requires an effective management for flash flood risk in order to make recommendations for prevention, preparedness and response.

随着山区城市化进程的加快，经济和人口在城市的相对聚集，使得山区城市面临易损性在不断地提高。因此，寻求有效的城市山洪灾害风险管理途径是城市防洪减灾的一项重要任务。

The split between the two groups can hardly be papered over.

这两个团体间的分歧难以掩饰。

This approach not only encourages a greater number of responses, but minimizes the likelihood of stale groupthink.

这种做法不仅鼓励了更多的反应，而且减少跟风的可能性。
