Cause Of Landslide

Cause Of Landslide - In general, there are some signs that can be seen will be the occurrence of landslides, it is very important to be aware because to anticipate the occurrence of landslides so that residents can prepare themselves to get out of the region that is not exposed to landslides. The following are the common signs of a landslide:

1. The appearance of cracks on the hill or the slope particularly steep, if encountered it is best to be vigilant.

2. Landslides usually occur after the process of the onset of the rains because the soil is not able to withstand the flow of water into the soil so that the soil moves following the movement of the water.

3. Landslides can also be suspected if the presence of springs emerging

4. The occurrence of rockfall gravel a result of the weakness of the cliffs or slopes.

5. If at the time of the rainy season there are puddles of water but suddenly when it rains there is no stagnant water then it could be one of the signs will be the presence of landslides.

6. The presence of part of the land that experienced a collapse in the number of large

The Cause Of Occurrence Of Landslides

The Cause Of Occurrence Of Landslides

There are several causes of the occurrence of landslides, such as the following:

1. Rain 

landslides usually occur at the time of the division of the rainy season. During the dry season is usually the ground will be cracked because of the issue of evaporation very much while the cracks earlier if the rainy season will be very easily filled with water so that the soil becomes unstable and mushy and in the end can cause movement of soil or landslides.

Therefore it is important to plant trees because the roots of the trees themselves capable of withstanding the soil and water into the soil so that the soil becomes more strong and not easy to occur the landslide and avoid the occurrence of the causes of air pollution and vice versa on the ground that it is not a lot planted with trees then the possibility to occur landslides will be greater.

2. The Steep slopes

landslides, which occur also typically caused by steep slopes that have a slope of almost 180 degrees. The steep slopes are usually caused due to the presence of erosion, both natural and intentional by humans.

3. The soil is Less Dense and Thick

 another Cause of the landslide is soil material that is less dense and thick. This usually occurs on the type of loam soil that has a density that is very tight and will instantly inflate if filled by water, causing the ground easy to move.
