  • Deformation Monitoring and Geohazards in Nigeria: a Critical Review
    International Journal of Research and Scientific Innovation (IJRSI) | Volume VI, Issue XI, November 2019 | ISSN 2321–2705 Deformation Monitoring and Geohazards in Nigeria: A Critical Review K. O. Ishola, P.A. Jegede Department of Surveying and Geoinformatics, Federal Polytechnic, Ado-Ekiti, Ekiti State, Nigeria Abstract:- Geohazards are geological and environmental due to plate tectonics. As noted by Chen et al (2017), different conditions that involve long-term or short-term geological types of geological hazards occur through different processes. It occur when artificial structures, such as buildings mechanisms. Even when the same types of hazard occur in and natural structures, such as slopes are deformed in various different internal geological structures, the causes and ways. To achieve the aim of this study which is to is to facilitate characteristics of the environmental external terrain conditions comprehensive technical understanding and knowledge of the processes of monitoring geological hazards and to better of the hazard can differ. MARI (2017) therefore asserted that appraise their impacts on engineering structures and the geohazards include: earthquakes, volcanic activity, landslides, environment with a view to providing mitigation strategy, in ground motion, tsunamis, floods, droughts, meteorite impacts order to achieve the stated objective, secondary data sourced and health hazards of geologic materials.

  • Geohazards Name
    Geohazards Name: ______________________________________________________________________ Period: ____________________ Date: _______________ Essential Question: Where are the common locations of geohazards and how do they occur? Geohazards can be defined as events related to the geological state and processes that may cause loss of lives as well as material and environmental damages. These geohazards arise from global geological processes inside the Earth, driving deformation and displacement of its crust. Underneath the thin crust the Earth consists of a sticky fluid of melted rock we call the mantle that undergoes convection that turns and twists like boiling water, causing the crust to move. The earth’s crust is divided in different plates called tectonic plates. When these plates interact the resulting crustal movement can cause earthquakes, allow volcanoes to erupt and set off landslides. All of these three; earthquakes, volcanic eruption and landslides can trigger tsunamis if they happen in or close to the ocean. Earthquake, volcanic eruption, landslide, tsunami, and sinkhole are all classified as geohazards. Earthquakes: Earthquakes occur in plate boundaries or fractures on Earth’s crust that can either be convergent, divergent, or transform. Earthquakes are caused by the sudden release of accumulated strain along these faults, releasing energy in the form seismic waves. A major earthquake is usually followed by aftershocks. Earthquakes may cause liquefaction, landslides, and tsunamis. Most earthquakes happen along the “Pacific Ring of Fire”, convergent boundaries around the Pacific Ocean. Volcanoes: A volcano is an opening in the Earth's crust from which lava, ash, and hot gases flow or are ejected during an eruption. Volcanic hazards vary from one volcano to another and from one eruption to the next.

  • Analysis of Geo-Hazards Caused by Climate Changes
    Landslides and Engineered Slopes – Chen et al. (eds) © 2008 Taylor & Francis Group, London, ISBN 978-0-415-41196-7 Analysis of geo-hazards caused by climate changes L.M. Zhang Department of Civil Engineering, The Hong Kong University of Science and Technology, Hong Kong, China ABSTRACT: This paper analyzes the effect of climate on the generation of possible geohazards. The rainfall and evaporation changes in Hong Kong in the past four decades are first reviewed based on records from the Hong Kong Observatory. Then the effect of climates on the generation of emerging geohazrzds is analyzed through a series of transient infiltration analyses taking the climate conditions as initial conditions. Three climate conditions; namely, extreme drought condition, extreme wet condition, and steady-state condition, are studied. Extreme yearly weather variations are shown to be the key to the generation of interchanging extreme hazards such as landslides and floods. The analysis results demonstrate that, in a prior extreme drought condition, an intermediate rainfall process can result in large surface runoff and thus surprising floods. In addition, dissipation of suction only occurs in the shallow soils. Hence, storm water infiltration into a dry ground is likely to cause shallow-seated landslides or debris flows under the combined effect of shallow perched ground water and surface erosion from increased runoff. On the other hand, in extremely wet conditions, the ground water table can rise substantially and failure of some slopes that have been stable for a long time can be triggered even by a moderate rainfall event. 1 INTRODUCTION value between 1964 and 2002 being 1405 mm (Figure 1a).
