Abstract. Landslides are one of the most common geologic hazards in the Loess Plateau of northwest China, especially with some of the highest landslide densities found in Shaanxi and adjacent provinces. Prior to assessing the landslide hazard, a detailed landslide inventory map is fundamental. This study documents the landslides on the northwest Loess Plateau with high accuracy using high-resolution Quickbird imagery for landslide inventory mapping in the Changshou valley of Baoji city. By far the majority of landslides are in loess, representing small-scale planar sliding. Most of the large-s

Abstract Landslides are geohydrological hazards that shape landscapes and may cause disasters. Despite their impact, the geological and geomorphological factors controlling their occurrence are not always well understood. This is especially so in mountainous areas in tropical regions where environmental conditions, such as bedrock type and soil weathering, may be specific. This research investigates these controls on landslides in the North Tanganyika-Kivu Rift region, tropical Africa.

Abstract Landslide mitigation efforts require a knowledge of the geometry and depth of the sliding surface present in a landslide body. Electrical resistivity tomography is the most common geophysical method used in landslide investigation. This paper presents the results of a series of electrical resistivity tomography surveys performed using a dipole-dipole array configuration to identify the sliding surfaces within a landslide body located in the Cibitung landslide area. The ERT images parallel the landslide body suggest that the sliding surface located below the crown is characterized by a

The study of the potential for landslides on steep excavation slopes in Kalumata Village, Ternate City using geoelectricity is important to do. The location of the sirtu mining excavation which tends to be steep and close to residential areas is urgent to know the type of lithology so as to facilitate recommendations for handling to be carried out. The purpose of this study was to determine the lithological composition of the material from tracks 1, 2, and 3 along the steep excavation slope using the geoelectric resistivity Sclumberger configuration method.

The past high earthquake activity in the area has displaced the foliated rocks towards the south and is responsible for opening the bedrock joints.

Abstract The northeastern edge of the Bolivian Eastern Cordillera is an example of a tectonically active plateau margin where orographically enhanced precipitation facilitates very high rates of erosion. The topography of the steepest part of the margin exhibits the classic signature of high erosion rates consisting of high-relief V-shaped valleys where landsliding is the dominant process of hillslope erosion and bedrock rivers are incising into the landscape.

The weak intercalated layer has low permeability and weak shear strength, and its interface dip outside of the slope.

In order to prevent a second landslide, a comprehensive treatment scheme is presented, which implements anti-slide piles as the major treatment and several auxiliary treatments including filling and compactin
