In this study using the Idrisi software system, a methodology for jointly analyzing and interpreting multi-spectral images and DEMs for extracting structural-geology features is given. In analyzing and interpreting multi-spectral images for geological features, certain criteria are employed to acquire information about the geological structures of the land, such as topographic, geomorphologic, ...

landslides and slope instabilities are major hazards for human activities often causing economiclosses and property damages. sikan river basin (ilam province) due to the topography, tectonic,lithology, and climate has enough potential for occurrence of this phenomenon. the objectives of thisstudy were to determine effective parameters controlling the landslide occurrence and to preparezonation ...

The most crucial but difficult task in the analysis of the risk due to landslide hazard is the estimation of the conditional probability of the occurrence of future landslides in a study area within a specific time period given the presence of spatial and geomorphologic features. This contribution explores a modeling procedure for estimating that conditional probability. The procedure proposed ...

the geomorphology is an important branch of natural geography that its goal is promotion of human life, ultimately. the geomorphic processes have considerable impact on human life, and opposing, human activities and behaviors have its impacts on the geomorphologic units and geomorphologic processes, enhancing the above argument. the gilan county, at its geographic position; embraced by two stru...

[1] The Transantarctic Mountains (TAM) define the western flank of the West Antarctic rift system. Cape Surprise, near the Shackleton Glacier in the central TAM, is the only location along the range’s >3500 km length where upper Paleozoic Beacon Supergroup strata are down-faulted to near sea level. Previous studies have inferred a range front master normal fault accommodates extension and rock ...

Conventional methods used to detect slope instability and map geomorphologic processes, especially in mountain areas, can benefit from remote sensing analyses, e.g. optical and radar satellite data. We illustrate the contribution of Persistent Scatterer Interferometry (PSI) analyses and photo-interpretation for the updating of pre-existing landslide inventory maps in mountain areas, through the...

geomorphologic landforms associated with tourism and development has been considered by many researchers in recent years. geomorphologic landforms which have values and capabilities, considered in context of tourism, known as geomorphosite and are studied in geomorphotourism approach. in this paper, we used landsat satellite imageries, geological and topographic maps, data obtained by field obs...
