In Indonesia, landslides become a disaster that has the most lead a victim. Nationally, during 2016 occurred 575 landslides that happened and 177 peoples died because of landslides. One of area that potential landslide is Kulonprogo which... more
Geo-informatics for landslide risk zone assessment in Wang Sa Pung Amphoe, Loei Province have investigated the influencing factors for landslide occurrence, and apply geo-informatics for landslide risk identification, in Wang Sa Pung... more
Evaluating the performance of landslide susceptibility models is needed to ensure their reliable application to risk management and land-use planning. When results from multiple models are available, a comparison of their performance is... more
En el contexto del ordenamiento territorial entre los años 1998 y 2000 el servicio de extensión universitaria de la Universidad Industrial de Santander elaboró un modelo en ArcGis para evaluar el la amenaza por remoción en masa para el... more
Sikkim is a disaster prone State. Indian Himalayan Region (IHR) faces complexity of landslide hazards of unreliable magnitudes above its different regions as one of the major natural hazards. Sikkim Himalaya in the eastern IHR also... more
Nous avons développé des modèles pour évaluer les menaces naturelles principales auxquelles est exposé Delmas 32. La menace sismique, la menace d’inondation et la menace d’instabilité des pentes ont été retenues comme celles qui... more
The analytical approach in the present study, based on the availability of necessary data and information, was set in order to better understand the potential in geomorphology and the geographical risk phenomena in the Niraj Basin, by the... more
Currently, regional coseismic landslide hazard analyses require comprehensive historical landslide inventories as well as detailed geotechnical data. Consequently, such analyses have not been possible where these data are not available. A... more
Soil resources of the Earth are vital for preserving life on this planet due to their unique ecosystem services. Etymologically, humus, human, and humble share, for a good reason, the same root. These resources are, however, limited and... more
Active deformation zones on the earth surface continue to threaten the life in the past, present and the future. The main two of these disasters are earthquake and landslide that are the reason of most human loss. The geological and... more
A Mw=7.0 earthquake occurred in Haiti on January 12, 2010 (IMMmax=X) claiming at least 230,000 lives, injuring 100,000 people and leaving 600,000 homeless. They add to another sizeable portion of the population already affected by... more
ABSTRACT Homeowners who live near or on steep slopes of the Traverse Mountains along the Wasatch front in southern Salt Lake City, Utah (USA) are at risk where development of “master-planned communities” has been permitted on known... more
Despite increasing efforts in the mapping of landslides using Sentinel-1 and-2, research on their combination for discerning historical landslides in forest areas is still lacking, particularly using object-oriented machine learning... more
An 8 Richter Scale (RS) earthquake struck West Sumatra on Wednesday, 30 September 2009, at 17.16 pm which led to huge number of landslides. Hence a comprehensive landslide susceptibility mapping (LSM) should be produced in order to reduce... more
High-resolution topographic surveying is traditionally associated with high capital and logistical costs, so that data acquisition is often passed on to specialist third party organizations. The high costs of data collection are, for many... more
Rock fall hazard assessment is a very demanding problem because of the complexity of the involved physics and its intrinsic stochasticity. New powerful tools, developed in the last few years, are characterized by different degrees of... more
Optimization of landslide conditioning factors using very high-resolution airborne laser scanning (LiDAR) data at catchment scale
In this study, it was aimed at evaluating the slope stability conditions in a residential area exposed to two landslides in the past by using two-and three-dimensional limit equilibrium analyses. Two separate, but interdependent,... more
Выявлена различная степень активности оползневых процессов для разных участков Затонского оползня – одного из самых крупных на территории Саратова. Установлена ключевая роль антропогенного фактора в активизации оползневых смещений. Южный... more
Landslide is very common problem in the Himalayan region that is tectonically very active. Nainital's geographic site (29°2'-29°37' N and 78°51'-79°59' E) and its condition allow for landslides to occur much more often than in any other... more
Digital elevation models (DEMs) are considered an imperative tool for many 3D visualization applications; however, for applications related to topography, they are exploited mostly as a basic source of information. In the study of... more
Traditionally, earth scientists assess landslide occurrence on the basis of geomorphological investigations carried out through aerial photograph interpretation and fieldwork. Conversely, local administrators primarily evaluate the impact... more
The present study uses Remote Sensing and GIS for finding susceptible zones of landslide hazards in the Tehri region which has an area of 798 sq.km. Six-factor layers responsible for landslide occurrence, such as road, slope, lineaments,... more
The Indo-Myanmar Ranges (IMR), known as an accretionary prism, lies between the Kaladan Fault (subduction suture) in the west and Kabaw Fault (the boundary between flysch units and molasse units) in the east is very important to interpret... more
The Himalayan region and hilly areas face severe challenges due to landslide occurrences during the rainy seasons in India, and the study area, i.e., the Rudraprayag district, is no exception. However, the landslide related database and... more
In the mid-ninth century, an earthquake triggered a landslide that blocked the narrow gorge of the Jhelum River where it exits the Kashmir Valley. The landslide impounded a lake that extended ≈100 km along the floor of the valley,... more
