Investigation of landslide potential parameters on Zonguldak–Ereğli Highway and adverse effects of landslides in the region

Abstract: Landslides are natural phenomena in the same class of natural disasters as earthquakes, floods, hurricanes, erosion, and volcanic eruptions that adversely affect human lives and property. Owing to their widespread occurrence, landslides are easily visible and able to be partially understood by people witnessing them. Nevertheless, to comprehend the detail of their formation and determine their potential, it is necessary to undertake geodetic, geological, and geophysical measurements in regions prone to landsli… Show more

“…The study area is home to ~ 300,000 people, all of whom reside in dwellings built without any definite design plan (Abdikan 2012 ). Generally, in these regions, different types of landslide such as flows, rotational slides, and, to a lesser extent, topples are observed (Can 2014 ).…”

“…The effects of anthropogenic forces are particularly intense for industrial areas (Yalcin et al 2011 ). Moreover, the destruction of vegetation on slopes and land misuse for various purposes contribute towards increase in the occurrence of landslides (Can 2014 ). Figure 3 e shows the land use characteristics of the AOI.…”

“…of landslides by engineering calculations also becomes very important in description of landslide mechanism [11]. In addition, definition of geologic, geophysical, geomorphologic structure of the concerned settlement area also becomes very essential with regard to protection of the infrastructures in the area.…”

“…Among those topographic features, specially field slope values, unit extension deformation and topographic hillside curvature (concave, convex, etc.) are the critical parameters that expert scientists studying in this field take primarily care of [8,11]. A well designed and well optimized geodetic network is first and foremost needed in the area in order to calculate and define those parameters in a sensitive manner in the landslide analysis in which those topographic parameters have important value.…”
