Karst environments are characterized by distinctive landforms related to dissolution and a
dominant subsurface drainage. The direct connection between the surface and the …

There have been major improvements in instrumentation, field survey design and data
inversion techniques for the geoelectrical method over the past 25 years. Multi-electrode …

Subsidence related to multiple natural and human-induced processes affects an increasing
number of areas worldwide. Although this phenomenon may involve surface deformation …

Since human beings started to colonise the world, slowly migrating (in multiple directions)
from the African Rift and ultimately reaching the southernmost territories of the Americas …

Sinkholes or dolines are closed depressions characteristic of terrains underlain by soluble
rocks (carbonates and/or evaporites). They may be related to the differential dissolutional …

This contribution illustrates the advantages of integrating conventional geomorphological
methods with InSAR, ground penetrating radar and trenching for sinkhole mapping and …

Sinkhole risks are becoming particularly severe in urban areas that lack careful planning
and where karst depressions are frequently filled and developed. These built-up areas are …

Anthropogenic activity-induced sinkholes pose a serious threat to building safety and human
life nowadays. Real-time detection and early warning of sinkhole formation are a key and …

Upward migration of underground cavities can pose a major hazard for people and
infrastructure. Either via sudden collapse sinkholes, or by eroding the support of building …

This paper explores the suitability and advantages of combining the trenching technique
with geophysical surveys [ground penetrating radar (GPR) and electrical resistivity …
