Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleA Monitoring System for Mitigation Planning: The Case of "Bagnaschino" Landslide in Northern ItalyGiuliani Andrea, Bonetto Sabrina, Castagna Sara et al.Problem statement: The Bagnaschino landslide occurred in November 1994 that caused extensive floods and many landslides all over northern Italy. In southern Piedmont, the Casotto River (Cuneo Province) damaged many kilometers of provincial road and the river was dammed by this landslide. The landslide involves an area of about 100 thousands m3, but a good knowledge of the landslide is … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 6 · 31 Dec 2010 · 7,191 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsSLOPE STABILITY ANALYSIS OF KALLAR-COONOOR HILL ROAD STRETCH OF THE NILGIRISP. Nalina, T. Meenambal, R. Sathyanarayan SridharThe stability of slopes is always under severe threats in many parts of Western Ghats, especially in Kallar-Coonoor hill road stretch, causing disruption, loss of human life and economy. To minimize the instability of soil slope in between Kallar-Coonoor, a critical evaluation of roads is required. The stability of slopes depends on the soil shear strength parameters such as Cohesion, … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 10, Issue 7 · 4 Feb 2014 · 7,402 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsRock Slopes Failure Susceptibility Analysis: From Remote Sensing Measurements to Geographic Information System Raster ModulesFilipello Andrea, Giuliani Andrea, Mandrone GiuseppeProblem statement: Two important step can be recognised in the rockfall analysis: the potential failure detection and the run out simulation. Analyzing the stability of rock slopes, most important kinematisms are planar or wedge slidings and topplings. The aim of this study was to coupling a deterministic approach for landslide initiation (potential rockfall source areas) with a runout analysis by … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 6 · 31 Dec 2010 · 8,619 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsA Study on Suction-rainfall Response of a Cut Slope in Unsaturated Residual Soil Using a Field Rain SimulatorBujang B.K. Huat, Faisal Hj. Ali, S. MariappanThis research describes the design and construction of an artificial rain simulator system and the results obtained with regards to suction-rainfall response of a cut slope in unsaturated residual soil of weathered sandstone of various weathering grades. From the field measurements, the shallow tensiometers are found to record an immediate initial increase in matric suction within the first 20 min … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 1, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2005 · 7,271 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractSystematic Literature Review of Graph Neural Networks in Disaster Management: Methods, Applications, and Future DirectionsSularno, Wendi Boy, Putri Anggraini et al.The increasing frequency and complexity of natural disasters underscore the urgent need for intelligent systems that support timely and effective decision-making. Graph Neural Networks (GNNs) have emerged as a powerful deep-learning paradigm for modeling spatial and relational data, offering distinct advantages for disaster management. This study presents a Systematic Literature Review (SLR) of GNN-based approaches for disaster mitigation, emergency response, … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 22, Issue 2 · 17 Feb 2026 · 2,036 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractMorphological Features of Rodoretto Valley Deep-Seated Gravitational Slope DeformationsMaria Gabriella Forno, Andrea Lingua, Stefano Lo Russo, Glenda TaddiaA new, detailed survey of the Rodoretto Valley (Western Alps, Italy) has been conducted resulting in the production of a new morphological and quaternary geological map of the area. The authors used the innovative Solid (True) Ortho-Photo (STOP) technology integrated with navigation sensors (Global Navigation Satellite System-GNSS/Inertial Measurement Unit-IMU). This state-of-the-art procedure has demonstrated several operational advantages during both the … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 8, Issue 6 · 9 Feb 2013 · 7,031 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractThe Role of Pioneer Vegetations in Accelerating The Process of Natural SuccessionNormaniza Osman, Faisal Haji Ali, Syed Shahar BarakbahProblem Statement: Even though bioengineering technique has been regarded as one way to alleviate landslide and erosion problems, this process of revegetation is severely time consuming as the process of plant succession of the slopes may take decades or even hundreds of years. Approach: However, the process can be tremendously hastened by planting the right suitable pioneer species on the … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 1 · 28 Feb 2009 · 7,422 accessesView PDFCite
Case ReportOpen accessIn the abstractComputational Analysis of Environmental Risk ConditionersBarbara Carla Coelho Batista, João Victor Dutra Balboa, Caio Vincenzo Reis Dima et al.The intense urbanization process since the 1970s, coupled with the lack of adequate housing and social policies, has led large urban centers to disordered occupations and situations of geotechnical risk. These occupations were not implemented in a technically correct manner from the point of view of civil engineering, considering landscaping, drainage and paving, as well as edification. Areas at risk … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 16, Issue 5 · 16 Oct 2020 · 6,794 accessesView PDFCite
Review ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractNASA Satellites Help us to Quickly Detect Forest FiresRelly Victoria Virgil Petrescu, Raffaella Aversa, Taher M. Abu-Lebdeh et al.The main idea is that, as the forests of the planet are getting smaller, too much wood is cut and the forests are made too slow, there are also large forest fires due to excessive heat, of people arguing with the law, or simply by chance. Extinguishing fires are generally difficult, interventions being difficult anyway due to the increased fire, … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 11, Issue 1 · 20 Feb 2018 · 8,085 accessesView PDFCite
