GIS-based route planning in landslide-prone areas

Many parts of the world with young mountain chains, such as the Himalayas, are highly susceptible to landslides. Due to general ruggedness and steep slopes, roads provide the only way of transportation and connectivity in such terrains. Generally, landslide hazards are overlooked during route planning. In this study, in a test area in the Himalayas, various thematic layers, viz. landslide distr...

Effect of Slope Gradient and Soil Physical Properties on Soil Loss in Furrows of Rainfed Farms

This study was conducted to investigate the effect of slope gradient and soil physical properties (grain size distribution, bulk density, aggregate stability and permeability) on water erosion in the furrows of rainfed farms under fallow conditions. The furrows with 6 m length were installed in five rainfed farms with 6.1, 10.6, 14.8, 20.7 and 27.1% slope steepness at three replications. Resul...

Comparison of Semi-Quantitative and Statistical Regression Models in Assessing Landslide Prone Areas in Wahig- Inabanga Watershed, Bohol, Philippines

The study attempted to compare and evaluate the two landslide hazard assessment models, semi-quantitative (index-based) and statistical regression (bivariate statistical analysis and logit regression) in predicting landslide prone areas in Wahig-Inabanga Watershed, Bohol, Philippines. This was performed by comparing the predictive power of each model based on the frequency distribution of past ...

Nanomaterial Containing Wall Paints Can Increase Radon Concentration in Houses Located in Radon Prone Areas

Background: Nowadays, extensive technological advancements have made it possible to use nanopaints which show exciting properties. In IR Iran excessive radon levels (up to 3700 Bq m–3) have been reported in homes located in radon prone areas. Over the past decades, concerns have been raised about the risk posed by resi- dential radon exposure.Objective: This study aims at investigating the ef...
