Abstract: On 10 June 1856, an M61/4 earthquake occurred between Qianjiang, Chongqin and Xianfeng, Hubei, resulting in severe geologic hazard including a series of large-scale landslides. Based on previous work, combining field investigations and remote sensing imagery, we have mapped the locations of three landslides triggered by this event, dominated by slumps. Our field work included observations to every failure slopes and occurrence, lithology and joints of rocks in the surroundings. We also employed an unmanned air plane to take pictures of the study area, yielding high-resolution DEM and DOM data which permit to generate terrain contours with a 2m interval. With these field investigations, we have described the sizes and forms of each slump mass in detail, and studied their generation mechanisms. Our research suggests the following natural conditions are responsible for these seismic landslides. 1)In a tectonic stress field characterized by NW-SE directed principal compressive stress, the slopes received a seismic acceleration from NW to SE in a short time. 2)Strata dip in a direction consistent with the seismic motion, thus the slope was easy to slide along stratum interfaces. 3)The two sets of joints existing in rocks experienced long-term weathering, resulting in connection of partial structural planes and destruction to the intactness of rock bodies.
