01 The Luding earthquake in Sichuan has killed 74 people! The epicenter of the Hailuogou Scenic Area did not have a large number of tourists due to the epidemic.
At 12:52 on September 5, a 6.8-magnitude earthquake occurred in Luding County, Ganzi Prefecture. The earthquake was felt in Chengdu, Chongqing, Xi'an, Luoyang and other places. The latest news is that as of 21:00 on September 6, the Luding earthquake has killed 74 people, including 640 people in Garze Prefecture and 634 people in Ya'an City.
Last night, Sichuan launched the provincial first-level emergency response to natural disasters!
The epicenter was in Hailuogou Glacier Forest Park. The towns within 20 kilometers of the epicenter include Moxi Town, Deduo Town and Yanzigou Town.
Hailuogou is located in the "embrace" of Gongga Mountain. It is a summer resort in Ganzi. It has virgin forests, glaciers, glacial river ice walls, ice caves landscapes, and China's longest glacier waterfall is located in it. The "Moxi Ancient Town" located at the entrance of Hailuogou is also an "Internet celebrity" self-driving attraction.
html At the end of August 48, the epidemic broke out in Chengdu, which affected the Hailuogou Scenic Area and was temporarily closed. When the earthquake occurred, the town was not as crowded with tourists as in previous years, which was a blessing among misfortunes.
Moxi Town is surrounded by mountains. Within 5 kilometers of the epicenter, the average altitude is about 2,684 meters. According to local news, a relatively serious landslide occurred in Hailuogou a few minutes after the earthquake. Judging from the video, the landslide was so violent that Provincial Highway 217 and National Highway were blocked to varying degrees.
After emergency repairs, many sections of 318 have been restored. But everything has made way for rescue. At present, the 318 Luding section is still only out!
02 Local rescue work is being carried out intensively.
# All people in the disaster area have been relocated.
As of 8:00 on September 6, a total of more than 6,650 people and 9 helicopters have been dispatched from various rescue forces including the People's Liberation Army and the Armed Police Force, fire rescue, forest firefighting, Aneng Group, production safety, transportation, communications and electric power, and medical rescue. At present, all the people affected by the disaster have been relocated.

# The barrier lake of the Wandong River in Luding County caused by the earthquake has overflowed
After the 6.8-magnitude earthquake in Luding County, Ganzi Prefecture, the mountain on the right bank of Wandong Village, Detuo Town, Luding County collapsed, blocking the right main branch of the Wandong River to form a barrier lake. According to remote sensing analysis, the barrier lake is about 4 kilometers away from the Dadu River confluence. After the Wandong River merges into the Dadu River, it directly enters the Dagangshan Power Station reservoir area (total storage capacity is 777 million cubic meters). The barrier lake has little impact on the main stream and downstream of the Dadu River. More than 100 people who were threatened along the East River in the bay have been moved to safe areas. According to on-site observations, the barrier lake has overflowed.
# The railway affected by the earthquake has returned to normal operation
According to the railway department, as of the 6th, a total of nearly 3,000 people have been dispatched, more than 620 sections have been inspected, more than 8,000 kilometers of lines, more than 5,000 bridges, and more than 1,900 tunnels have been inspected. After investigation, it has been confirmed that the railway affected by the earthquake has returned to normal operation.
#The Sichuan Provincial Medical Insurance Bureau issued an emergency policy to make every effort to provide medical support for people in the disaster area.
The Sichuan Provincial Medical Insurance Bureau issued an emergency notice, clarifying that for those injured in the disaster area who have not yet participated in the basic medical insurance, the emergency measures of "no waiting period for benefits, and relevant benefits can be enjoyed after participating in the insurance". For insured persons who are injured due to first aid and rescue due to disasters, drugs and diagnostic and treatment items that are not covered by the basic medical insurance and must be used may be temporarily included in the payment scope of the basic medical insurance fund. The medical expenses for emergency treatment of insured persons injured in disasters at non-designated medical institutions can be included in the payment scope of the basic medical insurance fund according to regulations, ensuring that the affected people can enjoy medical insurance benefits in a timely manner and that timely treatment will not be affected by cost issues.
03 What is the terrain like near the epicenter? What geological disasters may be caused? How should we pay attention and take precautions?
In response to these questions, we specially compiled relevant information and interviewed Professor Xu Qiang, Vice President of Chengdu University of Technology and Executive Deputy Director of the State Key Laboratory of Geological Hazard Prevention and Geological Environmental Protection.
# Spatial distribution probability prediction of earthquake-induced geological hazards
After the earthquake, the Strong Earthquake Geological Hazards Research Team of the State Key Laboratory of Geological Hazard Prevention and Geological Environmental Protection, Chengdu University of Technology, used the previously developed earthquake-induced geological hazards prediction model to predict the geological hazards induced by the Luding earthquake.
Spatial distribution probability prediction results of geological disasters induced by the Luding earthquake
The results show that affected by this earthquake, the southeastern region of the epicenter has the highest probability of earthquake-induced geological disasters.
Among them, The road from City in Shimian County to Wanggangping Scenic Area is very likely to be affected by earthquake-induced geological disasters. The eastern region of Hailuogou National Forest Park where the epicenter is located also has a high probability of spatial distribution; in addition, the surrounding areas of Moxi Town and Luding County, such as . The probability of occurrence of geological disasters is also high in the Luding section of National Highway 318, Lenqi Town and Moxi Town, along many rural roads, which has a greater impact on traffic. There are many landslide disasters at Niubeishan Bridge, near Daba Village, Shiyue River Dam, Wanggangping, etc. The model prediction results are more consistent with the actual on-site conditions in these areas.
The type of geological disaster may be mainly high-level collapse and landslides, and a small number of large-scale deep landslides may occur locally.

Xu Qiang said that this map mainly predicts which areas have a greater probability of geological disasters during the earthquake from a geological and statistical perspective, so as to guide earthquake relief.
The earthquake has ended. During the disaster relief process, we must focus on preventing geological disasters, especially landslides, collapses, and mudslides caused by rainfall. Luding is a high mountain canyon area with relatively serious geological disasters.
# There will be obvious rainfall in the Sichuan earthquake-stricken area tomorrow and the day after tomorrow, with heavy rain in local areas.
Xu Qiang reminded that " West China Autumn Rain " is a special weather phenomenon of rainy autumn in southwest my country. This year's autumn rain in West China has begun. The rainfall intensity of this autumn rain is not particularly strong. It is often a continuous drizzle, but its characteristic is that it lasts for a long time. Xu Qiang reminded pedestrians and vehicles on the road to be careful of local collapse and falling rocks.
According to Central Meteorological Observatory , light rain occurred in Luding County, Garze Prefecture, Sichuan and Shimian County, Ya'an City on September 5. At 8 o'clock on the 6th, the temperature in Luding County was 15℃ and in Shimian County was 17℃. It is expected that it will be cloudy with showers in Luding County and Shimian County on the 6th; there will be an obvious rainfall process from the 7th to the 8th, with mainly moderate rain and local heavy rain.
The Provincial Geological Disaster Command Office issued a earthquake disaster yellow warning - it is expected that in the next 72 hours, Kangding City, Luding County, Jiulong County , htm of Ganzi Prefecture l4Yajiang County, Tianquan County of Ya'an City, Yingjing County, Hanyuan County, Shimian County, Liangshan Prefecture Mianning County, Ganluo County and other 3 cities (prefectures) and 10 counties (cities) have a higher risk of geological disasters.
#What are the signals before flash floods, mudslides and landslides occur?
Xu Qiang said that there are often some precursors before any event occurs, and we can use these signals to escape and protect our lives.
There will be several characteristics before the occurrence of flash flood and debris flow
● First of all, rainfall is a necessary condition for the occurrence of debris flow. We not only need to pay attention to rainfall in our own location, but also need to pay attention to rainfall forecasts in the upstream direction of ravines and rivers. Therefore, we should pay more attention to the weather forecast. Without rainfall, it is impossible to cause mudslides.
●Secondly, we should pay attention to the changes in water. If the color of the tap water in the surrounding waters changes, it is likely that there has been heavy rainfall upstream. Once the amount of water suddenly starts to increase, it means that something is abnormal in the upstream area and you need to run away quickly.
●In addition, before a large flood strikes, there will be a roaring sound. If we hear a "rumbling" sound in the distance, we may need to prepare in advance.
and landslides will also have some signs before they occur. Generally, there will be local blocks of soil falling continuously before a large landslide.
● "Big slides and big collapses" are often preceded by "small collapses and small falls", which is a universal characteristic. When we were traveling by car in mountainous areas, we saw stones falling occasionally on both sides of the road, so we needed to stop and observe whether stones continued to fall. After waiting and observing for ten minutes, if no stones continue to fall, you can continue to move forward. If the stones continue to fall, it means that a large landslide may occur.
● "Deformation" will occur before a landslide occurs. For example, trees begin to fall over, soil rises, and houses crack. The ground is deforming, which means a landslide is likely.
●At the same time, we must also pay attention to changes in surface water. Groundwater is connected. If the water volume suddenly increases or decreases in a certain water source, or the color of the water quality is abnormal, it means that there may be the danger of landslides in the surrounding area.
