Dispersion of radiocesium-contaminated bottom sediment caused by heavy rainfall in Joso City, Japan
A large-scale heavy rainfall disaster occurred in Joso City, Japan, in September 2015, and one third of the city area (40 km2) was flooded by the Kinu River. Artificial radionuclides such as 134Cs and 137Cs were known to have accumulated in the river bottom sediment after their release in the 2011 Fukushima Dai-ichi Nuclear Power Plant accident. It was thought that these radionuclides might hav...
متن کاملTsunamis caused by submarine slope failures along western Great Bahama Bank
Submarine slope failures are a likely cause for tsunami generation along the East Coast of the United States. Among potential source areas for such tsunamis are submarine landslides and margin collapses of Bahamian platforms. Numerical models of past events, which have been identified using high-resolution multibeam bathymetric data, reveal possible tsunami impact on Bimini, the Florida Keys, a...
متن کاملBack analyses for slope failures in rock
Some of the geotechnical parameters used in the analysis may not be accurately measured directly from laboratory tests due to effects of sample disturbance and errors of tests. The back analysis or the observational method are thus often applied to determine the representative and/or dominant strength parameters based on field observations in practice. Based on the Hoek-Brown failure criterion,...
متن کاملLegacies of catastrophic rock slope failures in mountain landscapes
This review examines interpretive issues relating to catastrophic, long-runout landslides in the context of large numbers of recently discovered late Quaternary events. It links relevant research in landslide science, including some novel or hitherto-ignored complexities in the nature and role of these events, to broader concerns of mountain geomorphology. Attention is drawn to mountain ranges ...
متن کاملInteraction Effect of Slope Aspect and Precipitation Intensity in Runoff and Sediment in Acid Rainfall
Soils are severely damaged by acid rain; acid rain also leads to excessive dissolving of minerals and valuable nutrients in the soil, which weakens vegetation. In this study, in order to determine the interaction effect between the slope aspect and precipitation intensity relative to acid rainfall in the Aghajari and Gachsaran formations, a part of Margha and Kuhe Gach watersheds of Izeh city w...
