This study evaluated causative factors in landslide susceptibility assessments and compared the performance of five models based on certainty factor (CF), logistic regression (LR), analytic hierarchy process (AHP), coupled CF–analytic (CF-AHP), CF–logistic (CF-LR). Kaiyang County, China, has complex geological conditions frequent disasters. Based field observations, nine influencing factors, na...

The Kolleru Lake is a famous Ramsar wetland of international significance. In this study heavy metal contents in water and sediment samples are reported. It is found that certain potentially toxic metal ions like chromium (4.5-80 µg/L), copper (1-20 µg/L), manganese (1-313 µg/L) and zinc (1.2-57 µg/L) are present in variable quantities in the lake water. When normalized with respect to concentr...
