The mechanical properties and effects of the bank slopes in the reservoir area changed significantly, resulting in many bank collapses. This study systematically analyzed the bank slope of the head section of the reservoir, spanning 30 km from the dam to Baihetan Bridge, through a comprehensive investigation conducted after the initial impoundment. The analysis utilized UAV flights and ground surveys to interpret the bank slope\u2019s distribution characteristics and failure patterns. A total of 276 bank collapses were recorded, with a geohazard development density of 4.6\/km. The slope gradient of 26% of the collapsed banks experienced an increase ranging from 5 to 20\u00b0 after impoundment, whereas the remaining sites\u2019 inclines remained unchanged. According to the combination of lithology and movement mode, the bank failure mode is divided into six types, which are the surface erosion type, surface collapse type, surface slide type, bedding slip type of clastic rock, toppling type of clastic rock, and cavity corrosion type of carbonate rock. It was found that the collapsed banks in the reservoir area of 85% developed in the reactivation of old landslide deposits, while 15% in the clastic and carbonate rock. This study offers guidance for the next phase of bank collapse regulations and future geohazards prevention strategies in the Baihetan Reservoir area.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.3390\/rs16122253","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2024,6,20]],"date-time":"2024-06-20T11:42:03Z","timestamp":1718883723000},"page":"2253","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.3390\/mdpi_crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":4,"title":["Study on the Identification, Failure Mode, and Spatial Distribution of Bank Collapses after the Initial Impoundment in the Head Section of Baihetan Reservoir in Jinsha River, China"],"prefix":"10.3390","volume":"16","author":[{"given":"Chuangchuang","family":"Yao","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Institute of Geomechanics, Chinese Academy of Geological Sciences, Beijing 100081, China"},{"name":"Key Laboratory of Active Tectonics and Geological Safety, Ministry of Natural Resources, Beijing 100081, China"},{"name":"Research Center of Neotectonism and Crustal Stability, China Geological Survey, Beijing 100081, China"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0001-6735-5592","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Lingjing","family":"Li","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Institute of Geomechanics, Chinese Academy of Geological Sciences, Beijing 100081, China"},{"name":"Key Laboratory of Active Tectonics and Geological Safety, Ministry of Natural Resources, Beijing 100081, China"},{"name":"Research Center of Neotectonism and Crustal Stability, China Geological Survey, Beijing 100081, China"}]},{"given":"Xin","family":"Yao","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Institute of Geomechanics, Chinese Academy of Geological Sciences, Beijing 100081, China"},{"name":"Key Laboratory of Active Tectonics and Geological Safety, Ministry of Natural Resources, Beijing 100081, China"},{"name":"Research Center of Neotectonism and Crustal Stability, China Geological Survey, Beijing 100081, China"}]},{"given":"Renjiang","family":"Li","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Relocation & Resettlement Office, China Three Gorges Corporation, Chengdu 610017, China"}]},{"given":"Kaiyu","family":"Ren","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Institute of Geomechanics, Chinese Academy of Geological Sciences, Beijing 100081, China"},{"name":"Key Laboratory of Active Tectonics and Geological Safety, Ministry of Natural Resources, Beijing 100081, China"},{"name":"Research Center of Neotectonism and Crustal Stability, China Geological Survey, Beijing 100081, China"}]},{"given":"Shu","family":"Jiang","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Relocation & Resettlement Office, China Three Gorges Corporation, Chengdu 610017, China"}]},{"given":"Ximing","family":"Chen","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Institute of Geomechanics, Chinese Academy of Geological Sciences, Beijing 100081, China"},{"name":"Key Laboratory of Active Tectonics and Geological Safety, Ministry of Natural Resources, Beijing 100081, China"},{"name":"Research Center of Neotectonism and Crustal Stability, China Geological Survey, Beijing 100081, China"}]},{"given":"Li","family":"Ma","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Relocation & Resettlement Office, China Three Gorges Corporation, Chengdu 610017, China"}]}],"member":"1968","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2024,6,20]]},"reference":[{"key":"ref_1","first-page":"1","article-title":"On the rock-water interaction in reservoir areas and its geoenvironmental effect","volume":"4","author":"Wang","year":"1996","journal-title":"J.
