Abstract:Landslide is a common geological hazard, with rainfall being a major inducing factor. Estab lishing an accurate probability model for rainfall events is crucial for accurately identifying high-risk ar eas of landslides and developing scientific and reasonable disaster prevention and mitigation strategies. However, due to the limited availability of rainfall data, only a few regions have established bivariate probability models for rainfall events. This paper proposes a method for establishing bivariate probabil ity model for rainfall events in any region based on satellite remote sensing data. First, satellite remote sensing rainfall time series from arbitrary regions in the world were automatically obtained using web crawler technology. Taking Shaojiadu Subdistrict in Linhai City as an example, the continuous rainfall time series were divided into independent rainfall events based on inter-event time definition (IETD), and variables such as rainfall amount and duration were extracted. On this basis, a bivariate probability model for rainfall events was established using Copula function, and K-S test was used to evaluate the goodness of fit of the model. Furthermore, the definition of the return period in the bivariate probabili ty model for rainfall events was discussed and compared with the analysis results of the univariate prob ability model. Finally, the bivariate probability model for rainfall events was established for each re gion in Zhejiang Province, revealing the spatial distribution of rainfall variables across the province. The established bivariate probability model for rainfall events provides accurate rainfall data support for the risk assessment of rainfall-induced landslides.
