Kikon, A., and Jamir, I., 2021: Remote sensing based macro-scale (1:50,000) landslide susceptibility mapping in Toposheets 78M/9, M/10, M/11, M/13, M/14, M/15, 83A/2, A/3, A/4, A/7, A/8, A/11, A/12, 83B/1, B/5 & B/9 covering  parts of Tawang, West Kameng
Remedial measures in the form of  slope benching/ terracing is already implemented. However, systematic channeling of hillslope drainages is recommended for proper disposal of surface water runoff.

1. Slope benching/ terracing is already implemented. 2. Systematic channeling of drainages and disposal of surface water runoff through construction of proper drainage system. 3. Construction of retaining wall for toe support; with proper back filler mat
1. Slope forming material is predominantly composed of moderately weathered and fractured/ fragmented rock mass. 2. Slope failure along the valley dipping plane (S0 || J1) 3. Dissection of hillslope by major drainages. 4. Predominantly wet and dripping h
