Since the early 1990s, the mathematical models have been developed and applied to landslide hazard mapping using GIS. Among various models, this paper discusses the effectiveness of fuzzy set theory for landslide hazard mapping. In this study, we collected several data sets related to landslide occurrences in Boeun, Korea, and then digitally represented as the fuzzy membership functions. To int...

The study attempted to compare and evaluate the two landslide hazard assessment models, semi-quantitative (index-based) and statistical regression (bivariate statistical analysis and logit regression) in predicting landslide prone areas in Wahig-Inabanga Watershed, Bohol, Philippines. This was performed by comparing the predictive power of each model based on the frequency distribution of past ...

This paper reports the results of geological and geomorphological surveys and the first results of a still in progress GPS monitoring campaign1, taken on a large and ancient landslide located near Avigliano town (Basilicata region, South Italy). The landslide occurs on structurally complex clayey-marly terrains and it is classifiable as a multiple and complex roto-translational-earthflow landsl...

The main aim of this paper is landslide susceptibility assessment using fuzzy expert-based modeling. Factors that influence landslide occurrence, such as elevation, slope, aspect, lithology, land cover, precipitation and seismicity were considered. Expert-based fuzzy weighting (EFW) approach was used to combine these factors for landslide susceptibility mapping (Peloponnese, Greece). This metho...

This study performs district and local administrative level multi-hazard zonation of Nepal. As multiple natural hazards are frequent, their losses enormous, maps can provide important insights before the occurrence so that effective countermeasures preparedness efforts be designed implemented. To this end, weightage-based Nepal is performed considering 27,482 independent hazard events. We consi...

subalpine rangeland as a rara avis ecosystem is very important because ofecological features. consistency and resistance of this ecosystem is so frangible and itsnatural equilibrium is instable due to the effects of biotic and abiotic factors. the landslideas one of negative consequences in upland area is seen in masoleh watershed (north ofiran). this study has investigated the roles of biotic ...
