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/)
