landslides commonly observes due to settlement if underneath strata is weak.
earth movement . this discussion should go forward considering & focusing on weak soil properties. How to identify such erosion hot spots?
1. Use of hard engineering techniques such as concrete retaining walls, gabion walls, soil nailing and terracing.
2. Soft engineering techniques such as vegetation, buffer strips, and check dams.
3. Geotechnical monitoring and assessment, such as slope stability analysis and landslide susceptibility mapping.
4. Installation of drainage systems to reduce water infiltration.
5. Proper land use planning and management, including zoning and regulations.
6. Public education and awareness campaigns to reduce human-induced landslides.
7. Use of geosynthetic materials to improve soil stability.
8. Installation of early warning systems to detect potential landslides.
Geological, geotechnical and drainage inspection of slopes will help to identify the hotspots on erosion. I agree with Peter on remedial measures. Heavy rainfall or bushfire affects the slopes. Alluvium, colluvium and filled material are erodible where there is no vegetation.
some techniques that can be used to prevent landslides due to soil erosion.
application of any method should be done with extensive evaluation of the location, situation, expected outcome, cost significance, budget, etc. i.e. no one fix solutions, should be evaluated case by case basis.
