[Malaysia] Integrated Modelling of Landslides due to Hydrometeorological Impacts in Langat Basin, Peninsular Malaysia (iModelLandslides)

近年来，马来西亚经历了许多由极端热带降雨造成的山体滑坡灾害。马来西亚的几个地方都发生了山体滑坡，比如槟城的Paya Terubong、吉隆坡的Highland Towers、Hulu Langat和霹雳州的Pos Dipang。这些山体滑坡造成了数百万英镑的财产损失和数百人的生命。2017年10月21日，马来西亚槟城岛一建筑工地发生山体滑坡，造成11名工人死亡。2002年10月在吉隆坡发生的山体滑坡完全摧毁了几座房屋，造成6名家庭成员死亡；2011年在Hulu Langat发生的山体滑坡，造成15名儿童和孤儿院的一名看护人死亡，这些都仍然留在公众的记忆中。人口增长和随后的城市化要求在边坡破坏风险增加的山区开发新的住宅区、地区和道路。预计到2040年，马来西亚的人口将从2010年的2860万增加到4150万。这一建议将产生一个定性的危险地图，描绘马来西亚半岛朗加特河流域容易发生山体滑坡的地区。灾害图将确定易发生山体滑坡的地区，包括气候变化对山体滑坡易感性的预期变化。兰加特河流域是马来西亚城市化程度最高的流域。重要的城市包括Cheras， Kajang， Bangi和Putrajaya（马来西亚的行政首都）等城镇。该盆地面积约为2350平方公里。该地区经历了多次山体滑坡灾害，并已被马来西亚公共工程部在其国家滑坡总体规划研究中确定为滑坡易发地区。该提案将涉及与马来西亚公共工程部和国家灾害管理局以及几个工业伙伴的密切合作，以确保在实践中适应拟议的地图。

In recent years, Malaysia has experienced a number of landslide disasters resulting from extreme tropical rainfall. Landslides have occurred in several parts of Malaysia, such as Paya Terubong (Penang), Highland Towers (Kuala Lumpur), Hulu Langat and Pos Dipang (Perak). These landslides cost millions of pounds of property loss and hundreds of lives. On 21 October 2017, 11 workers were killed in a landslide at a construction site on Malaysia's Penang Island. The October 2002 landslide in Kuala Lumpur which completely destroyed several houses and killed six members of a family and the 2011 Hulu Langat landslide, where 15 children and a caretaker in an orphanage were killed are still in the public's memory. Population increase and subsequent urbanization have demanded the development of new residential and areas and roads in mountainous areas where there is an increased risk of slope failures. Malaysia's population is projected to rise to 41.5 million by 2040, up from 28.6 million in 2010.This proposal will produce a qualitative hazard map delineating areas prone to landslides in the Langat River Basin, Peninsular Malaysia. The hazard map will identify landslide-prone areas, including expected changes in landslide susceptibility as a result of climate change. Langat River Basin is most urbanized river basin in Malaysia. Important conurbations include towns such as Cheras, Kajang, Bangi and Putrajaya (the administrative capital of Malaysia). The basin has an area of about 2350 km2. The area has been experiencing numerous landslides disasters and has been identified by the Malaysia Public Work Department in its National Slope Master Plan Study as landslide-prone area. The proposal will involve close collaboration with the Public Works Department and the National Disaster Management Agency in Malaysia and several industrial partners to ensure the adaptation of the proposed map in practice.
