Description :
Significant acoustic emissions have been recorded from two landslide sites, both subsequent to a major failure (Pantteg) and during continuous slow movement (Glynrhigos). Four distinct types of pedogenic AE have been recognised. The effects of loading and rainfall have also been recorded and analysed. The results indicate that there is considerable potential in developing a warning system for identifying increasing instability.
