Abstract A comprehensive sinkhole inventory is crucial for accurately assessing susceptibility. The presented study introduces a semi-automatic approach mapping potential sinkholes through geomorphometric analysis of digital elevation models complemented by statistical analysis. This aims to augment current inventories in quantity and quality. We chose the distinct karst terrain along southwestern edge Harz Mountains Lower Saxony as our focal area. genesis most this area linked subrosion...
The eastern slope of Garmaksla, a flat-topped mountain at the western margin Billefjorden, Svalbard, is affected by mass movements different types. Rotational rock slides, fall and avalanche affecting coastal cliff are shallow surface expressions covering larger instability that bordered to west Balliolbreen Fault. This structural feature part Billefjorden Fault Zone accommodated multi-phase deformation since Devonian time. Based on comprehensive morpho-structural analysis, mapped features...
Coastal areas are dynamic zones where geological, marine, and atmospheric processes interact. The coastal shapes constantly evolve due to both natural factors human activity. Gravitational mass movements, commonly called landslides, prominent indicators of dynamics. With the current climate projections indicating increasing stormy weather extreme water levels, communities face an escalating hazard more frequent severe landslides on steep coastlines. Mecklenburg-Western Pomerania exhibits a...
Geological mapping in dynamic coastal areas is crucial, but traditional methods are laborious and expensive. Employing uncrewed aerial vehicle (UAV) - based for high-resolution imagery, combined with deep learning texture classification segmentation, offers a promising improvement. In the “AI-aided Assessment of Mass Movement Potentials Along Steep Coast Mecklenburg Western Pomerania” project, we explore use geological mapping. We conduct repetitive UAV surveys across...
Abstract The paper presents the framework and discusses outcomes of "Mass Movements in Germany" project—a collaboration five State Geological Surveys (SGSs) Federal Institute for Geosciences Natural Resources (BGR) to conduct a feasibility study nationwide landslide susceptibility map Germany using harmonized datasets. Therefore, distinct methods representing heuristic, physically-based, data-driven approaches were employed. In 14 consecutive modeling cases, we investigated parameter...
Sustainable development of urban areas demands, among others, a holistic approach for identification and monitoring environmental changes caused by human activities. In this study, the human-made impact on geo-environment is studied through application change detection study based Principal Component Analysis Landsat imageries comparison digital elevation models taken at different times. The analysis set up to identify quantify anthropogenic geomorphological in loess landscape Lanzhou city,...
The Indonesian archipelago is prone to various geological hazards on an almost day basis. In order mitigate disaster risk and reduce losses, the government uses its unique setup of ministerial training institutions. Centre for Development Human Resources in Geology, Mineral Coal offers different level technical local governments provide them with necessary means understand hazards, risks, hence close gap between national governments. One key factor has been continuous incorporation new...
