High magnitude rainfall triggers numerous shallow debris slides in the Darjeeling Himalayas causing widespread damage to the environment, loss of life and property. Thin soil cover and steep topography make the region vulnerable to debris slides. The objective of the present study is to assess the susceptibility of the eastern part of Darjeeling Himalayas (covering about 330km2) to shallow debris...
Landslide susceptibility is the likelihood of a landslide occurrence in an area predicted on the basis of local terrain conditions. Since last few years, researchers have attempted to analyse the probability of landslide occurrences and introduced different methods of landslide susceptibility assessment. The objective of this paper is to assess the landslide susceptibility in parts of the Darjeeling...
