Integrated monitoring of slope processes in North Ossetia

Abstract

Landslides are one of the most destructive natural processes. The Loire landslide seems to be the reference object in this regard, it has absorbed all the extreme features of landslide structures known in the Central Caucasus, but has not revealed the secrets of its static state, the determination of which is the most important task of the scientific research. An active landslide formed as a result of anthropogenic activity (slope pruning) is also considered. The selected objects were examined by the geodetic and geophysical methods. Appropriate monitoring systems have been created.
