Revisiting Battistini: Pleistocene Coastal Evolution of Southwestern Madagascar by Patrick Boyden, Jennifer Weil-Accardo, Pierre Deschamps, Nicolas Godeau, Nicolas Jaosedy, Abel Guihou, Mamy Nirina Rajaonarivelo, Michael O’Leary, Marc Humblet, Alessio Rovere

“…This is especially true in southwestern Madagascar, where, in the 1960s and 1970s, emerged Pleistocene beach and reef facies were first described in detail and dated to Marine Isotope Stage (MIS) 5a using U–Th alpha activity counting by french geologist René Battistini. Now, 50 years on, no further analysis of the coastal sequence has been made. …”

Interrelationship between borehole lithology and electrical resistivity for geotechnical site investigation by Ishak, Mohd. Fakhrurrazi, Zolkepli, Muhammad Farhan, Masyhur, Eko March Handoko, Mohd. Yunus, Nor Zurairahetty, A. Rashid, Ahmad Safuan, Hezmi, Muhammad Azril, Abang Hasbollah, Dayang Zulaika, Mohd. Yusoff, Abdull Rahim

“…ERT act to inject electric current to the ground to study the chargeability or the resistivity value of a material. Engineers, geologist and researchers can apply ERT for their subsurface investigation since ERT proves to be very efficient and effective for subsurface mapping in term of cost, time and data coverage. 2D Electrical Resistivity Tomography survey was performed in Kuala Krau, Temerloh, Pahang to assist geotechnical site investigation. …”

Stability Analysis of Rocky Slopes on the Cuenca–Girón–Pasaje Road, Combining Limit Equilibrium Methods, Kinematics, Empirical Methods, and Photogrammetry by Xavier Delgado-Reivan, Cristhian Paredes-Miranda, Silvia Loaiza, Michelle Del Pilar Villalta Echeverria, Maurizio Mulas, Luis Jordá-Bordehore

“…The difference between both types of measurements is around 5°, which we believe is reasonable since it is within the precision and repeatability of measurements with a geologist’s compass. This work analyzes the stability of six slopes (five excavated and one natural) by applying five different analysis methodologies based on the rock mass classification system (SMR, RHRSmod, and Qslope), kinematic analysis, and analytical analysis (limit equilibrium). …”
