LANDSLIDES ZONATION HAZARD: RELATION BETWEEN GEOLOGICAL STRUCTURES AND LANDSLIDES OCCURRENCE IN HILLY TROPICAL REGIONS OF BRAZIL

Landslides Zonation Hazard: relation between geological structures and landslides occurrence in hilly tropical regions of Brazil

ABSTRACT This paper presents a new approach of landslides zonation hazard studies, based on an integrated study of structural data along with geomorphological and external factors, in a hilly regions of Brazil, covered by a tropical humid rain-forest, called Serra do Mar.The Serra do Mar consists of a hilly region along the east coast of Brazil, wi

Evaluation of determining factors of underground hydrosphere evolution within urban areas (on the example of Irkutsk)

The relevance of the discussed issue.Studying the anthropogenic evolution and transformation of underground hydrosphere within urbanized territories is the relevant issue nowadays.Underflooding and forming of technogenic aquifers cause serious Layette geological hazards, that has been seen in some districts of Irkutsk.That fact sets a problem of fo
