Modeling of potential gully erosion hazard using geo-spatial technology at Garbheta block, West Bengal in India

The gully erosion is the most serious environmental problem in West Bengal in India. Present study focused on delineation the gully affected areas and characterization of geo-environmental factor in the gully affected region to prevent future problems. Ground investigation and geo-spatial data along with bivariate statistical approach were employed to identity the most crucial factors among lithology, dynamic and slope inclination, landuse,...
