ABSTRACT

Ground subsidence is a kind of geological disaster, which is due to natural and human factors under the action of the formation of the ground vertical drop phenomenon. The natural factors mainly include the large range and small rate of land subsidence caused by an earthquake, volcanic activity, and tectonic movement, which is beyond human control at present. The human factors mainly refer to the non-standard pumping construction design, the transition mining of underground resources, etc. Although the scope of its formation is small, the rate and range are large. Its occurrence and development have an inseparable relationship with human activities, which can be controlled and prevented through certain ways and measures. Correct understanding of these characteristics for disaster assessment, to prevent and reduce disaster, and thus avoid unnecessary losses.
