Land preservation and restoration are important tools for managing imperiled aquatic species, but they are often applied in the absence of a transparent scheme of geographic prioritization. To help guide preservation and restoration efforts in the Conasauga River Basin in Georgia and Tennessee, we used the “Zonation” algorithm to prioritize sub-watersheds. Zonation is a prioritization system th...

Regional-scale analyses of susceptibility to liquefaction are seldom performed in data-scarce areas. However, spite data limitations, such efforts can still provide useful information case populated, seismically active regions. The present work focuses on zonation for soil that might occur due ground shaking the Foggia Province, a data-scarce, area about 7000 km2 located southern Italy. Analyti...

drought is a complex natural phenomenon that can occur in any climate. hydrologic drought in the river flow of arid and semi-arid areas causes serious shortages, threatens the quality of life, and impacts on the economy. understanding this feature is then essential for the management of water resources. hydrologic drought in the sense of deficient river flow is defined as the periods that river...

Abstract Landslide risk analysis is a common geotechnical evaluation and it aims to protect life infrastructure. In the case of sensitive clay zones, landslides can affect large areas are difficult predict. Here we propose methodology determine landslide hazard across territory, apply our approach Saint-Jean-Vianney area, Quebec, Canada. The initial step consists creating 3D model surficial dep...
