Debris slide documented along Tura-Williamnagar Road Chinabat, caused due to the high degree of weathering and steep joints facilitating water percolation and leading to increased pore water pressure. Concave slope morphometry rocks coupled with steep sl
Mohanty, A. and Nelson, A., 2020. Macro-scale landslide susceptibility mapping in parts of Toposheet nos. 78G/14, 78G/15, 78K/1, 78K/2, 78K/3, 78K/4, 78K/5, 78K/6, 78K/7 and 78K/8 covering parts of North Garo Hills, South Garo Hills, East Garo Hills, Wes
Settlement observed about 50 m away from the crown portion of the landslide. Along the left flank of the slide small manmade nala is observed along which anthropogenic wastes are thrown.
Tura-Williamnagar road slide no 3
SH-1, Tura-Williamnagar Road, Chinabat, Meghalaya.
Removal and clearing of debris, construction of lined hill side drainage to prevent further degradation of the slope.
Highly weathered and jointed gneiss facilitating water percolation through the fractures and joints leading to increased pore water pressure. Concave slope morphometry rocks coupled with steep slopes facilitating water accumulation or percolation further
