|
To understand the causes and mechanisms of soil erosion and slope failure in mountaionus region. To study on the methods of prediction of occurrence of slope failure, assessment of hazard zone and planning of countermeasrues. |
| Expected Learning |
| To understand the influence of rainfall on occurrence of soil erosion and slope failure. |
