<b>Variability in soil physical properties in landslide-prone areas

Abstract: The present study aimed to evaluate the relationship between the physical properties of the soil and relief in areas that are susceptible to landslides in the sub-basin of the Córrego do Yung, a creek in the urban district Três Moinhos of Juiz de Fora, Minas Gerais. Depth measurements of the solum were made at the soil sampling points, and the subsurface material was collected and analyzed for the two factors of particle size and type of horizon. In the laboratory, we determined the hydraulic conductivity, bul… Show more

“…But the value of the physical properties of the soil in the form of soil porosity, permeability, and bulk density of the soil is considered a soil factor that can affect the occurrence of landslides if it is associated with land use cultivated by the community. (Reichenbach et al 2014;Fonseca et al 2017a). Statistical test results indicated signi cant collaboration of the type of land use, slope, and physical properties of the soil (soil porosity, bulk density, and permeability) on the occurrence of landslides at the study site (Table 2).…”

“…Soil parameters have been used by several researchers in assessing landslide susceptibility, especially soil texture, macro-micro porosity, and erodibility (Fonseca et al 2017b;Conforti and Ietto 2021). The addition of soil micromorphology data in the form of plane voids has signi cantly affected the physical occurrence of landslides at the study site (Ahmad et al 2022a).…”

“…Lots of studies are conducted on the role of soil texture in occurrence of landslides (Lee et al 2017;Rahim et al 2018). The studies show that soils with higher silt content are more likely to erode compared to clay and sandy soils (Fonseca et al 2017). This factor has 4 classes incuding Silty Clay Loam, Loam, Silty Loam, and Clay Loam.…”

“…Comparing the AHP and RF maps, with some limiting factors for micro-dam construction, it was evident that in the multicriteria analysis, there were many areas with high potential (levels 4 and 5) in steep slope areas (Figure 5a). Overestimating the high potential levels for micro-dam in hillslope can be a critical problem, since these zones coincide with the dominance of the Inceptisols, soils with higher silt content and more susceptible to erosion (FU et al, 2011;FONSECA et al, 2017). On the other hand, the RF did not overestimate the high and very high potential levels in in hillslopes.…”
