Landslides are a common geological hazard causing impairment of public works and loss of
lives worldwide and in India, especially in the Himalayan region. The present study aims to …

With rapid urbanization, the green space in urban areas is replaced with impervious built-up
areas, which increases the frequency of urban floods. Kamrup Metropolitan District, Assam …

The present study aims at conducting a comprehensive seismic risk assessment for the
North Eastern Region of India at regional and sub-regional levels by integrating probabilistic …

Natural destructive forces produced by active tectonics have the potential to alter the
geomorphology of any terrain. In this work, Uttarakhand was selected as a study region to …

Abstract The Shillong Plateau in the Eastern Himalayas is exposed to high seismicity, neo‐
tectonic activity and orographic precipitation that aggravated landslides in the region by …

Increasing urbanization and unplanned growth reduce urban resilience to natural hazards
such as floods. Utilization of urban green space (UGS) as a nature-based solution (NBS) …

The landform of the region highly influences the dynamics of the flood and plays a crucial
role in directing the water flow, affecting the speed and volume of runoff. Assam, located in …

This study leverages two cutting-edge automated landform classification approaches—
Topographic Position Index (LC TPI) and Geomorphon (LC Gm)—to map and categorize …

Uttarakhand located in the Himalayas at the dynamic intersection of Indian and Eurasian
tectonic plates, is severely prone to a wide range of natural disasters. The genesis of …

Abstract The Indo-Gangetic Plain (IGP) is one of the most seismically vulnerable areas due
to its proximity to the Himalayas. Geographic information system (GIS)-based seismic …
