| description | This paper focuses on the studying of landslides in the hinterland area of the Koroška Bela settlement, NW
Slovenia. Research has shown that these landslides have the potential to mobilize the material into a debris flw.
The area of interest is located on the Karavanke mountain ridge, above the settlement of Koroška Bela, which lies
on the outskirts of the town of Jesenice. In order to recognize and understand the kinematics of landslides and their
triggering mechanisms, a multidisciplinary approach using engineering-geological and geotechnical investigations
was applied. Thus, landslide source areas were determined based on engineering-geological mapping. Furthermore,
landslide boundaries, types of landslides and sediments that are involved in processes of sliding were mapped in
detail. Geotechnical monitoring is benefiial in evaluating rates of movement and failures in the ground under real
conditions in the fild. Current investigations as well as historical evidence and previous research prove that the
hinterland of Koroška Bela is prone to various types of landslides that together form a source area that has the
potential to mobilize into larger debris flw. |
