SPATIOTEMPORAL SLOPE STABILITY ANALYTICS FOR FAILURE ESTIMATION (SSSAFE): LINKING RADAR DATA TO THE FUNDAMENTAL DYNAMICS OF GRANULAR FAILURE

Spatiotemporal slope stability analytics for failure estimation (SSSAFE): linking radar data to the fundamental dynamics of granular failure

Abstract Impending catastrophic failure of granular earth slopes manifests distinct kinematic patterns in space and time.While risk assessments of slope failure hazards have routinely relied on the monitoring of ground motion, Knitwear such precursory failure patterns remain poorly understood.A key challenge is the multiplicity of spatiotemporal sc

Variability of water balance components in a coffee crop in Brazil

Establishing field water balances is difficult and costly, the variability of their components being the major problem to obtain reliable results.This component variability is presented herein for a coffee crop grown in the Southern Hemisphere, on a tropical soil with 10% slope.It was observed that: rainfall has to be measured with an appropriate E
