description The Hebei Taihang Mountains-Yanshan region marks North China’s natural boundary between plains and plateaus. The unique geological and geographical conditions have led to a hazardous environment with frequent geological events. Hence, conducting a comparative analysis of regional geological hazard drivers is necessary. A geological hazard driver analysis model using multiparameter preferential Geodetectors was developed, focusing on the Taihang Mountains-Yanshan region in Hebei. It was divided into zones: Taihang Mountains, Yanshan Mountains and Dam Plateau. The results showed significant differences in the explanatory power of geohazard drivers in various zones, varying with the softening of the natural geological environment and increased human activities. In the Taihang Mountains, the primary geohazard factor is average annual rainfall, whereas in the Yanshan Mountains, it is average annual rainfall and geomorphology. Interactions among factors reveal that annual average rainfall holds the highest explanatory power for geological hazard spatial differences, notably interacting with geomorphological, geological and human activity regions, yielding an escalating effect. The study findings can be crucial references for disaster prevention, mitigation, national land resource development, economic planning and the ‘six belts’ construction in Beijing, Tianjin and Hebei.
