Data associated with: Characterising the post-seismic behaviour of damaged slopes - Nepal 2015 (NERC grant NE/N007689/1)

1. Rainfall (0.2 mm tipping bucket), accelerometer (OEM) and extensometer (string potentiometer) data from 10 instruments deployed across ground cracks in Sindhupalchok, Nepal in the aftermath of the 2015 earthquake. Data is provided in *.csv format, to include for each instrument: date, rainfall, extension(raw/min/max/mean/std), x(raw/min/max/mean/std), y(raw/min/max/mean/std), z(raw/min/max/mean/std). 2. Shapefiles of landslide mapping in the Upper Bhote Kosi valley, Sindhupalchok, Nepal, Including immediately post-earthquake (pre-monsoon), and post-2015 monsoon.

Statement

A bespoke instrument cluster was developed to include tipping bucket rain gauge, string extensometer, and OEM accelerometer. These allowed constant (1 s interval) monitoring of the controls (rainfall, seismicity) on landslide movement (extension), to be captured and reported via a live web-enabled set of 10 data loggers. Data was recorded and derivative produced using Onset Hobo RX3000s. Instruments were variously located on ridgeline cracking, landslide head scarps, tension cracks and over areas of ground deformation induced . by the 2015 Nepal earthquake sequence. A more detailed method is reported in Rosser et al (in review) Post-earthquake deformation of seismically damaged slopes. The method to collect the landslide mapping data (2, above) is described in: Williams et al. ( https://www.nat-hazards-earth-syst-sci-discuss.net/nhess-2017-273/)
