In this paper are treated briefly the geotechnical analysis of hills slopes areas in the heritage town of Berati, Albania. From engineering geological mapping on scale 1:10 000 and geotechnical investigations carried out in urban area of Berati town was found that two zones are threated from landslides phenomenon. The first one is located in center part, whereas the second in northeast part of ...

The Sanak-Baranof plutonic belt (SBPB) includes a series of biotite tonalite, granodiorite, and granite neartrench plutons that intrude the Campanian to Eocene flysch of the Chugach-Prince William terrane (CPW) for 2100 km along the southern Alaskan margin (Hudson et al., 1979; Hill et al., 1981; Bradley et al., 2003; Haeussler et al., 2003). SBPB intrusions have been interpreted to be the resu...

[1] We have obtained high resolution group velocity maps of Rayleigh waves at periods from 8 to 25 seconds across the Iberian Peninsula by cross-correlating four months of ambient noise data recorded by 40 permanent broadband stations. Group velocity maps accurately image the main structural elements of the Iberian upper crust, including the Iberian Massif, Alpine orogens and major sedimentary ...

Natural gamma-emitting radionuclides (U, Ra, Th, Pb) and selected major and trace elements (Ca, K, Mg, Na, Fe, Al, Mn, Pb, Ba, Zn, Sr, Li, Co, Ni, Cu, Cr, Cd) were determined in a soil toposequence along a mountain slope of the Tertiary Flysch landscapes in the Central Spanish Pyrenees. A variety of basic properties were also measured from the soil profiles. Mean radioisotope activities (Bq kg ...
