The most important problems with a negative impact for Romanian coast, the erosion phenomen, are given by the numerous conflicts between the development of various economic activities and it is necessary to implement a system for preventing the further deterioration of shoreline. Coastal protection systems can be represented by linear structures perpendicular to the shore, called groynes. The groynes trapping sand on the upstream side and in this way, protect the coast behind the sand filet. The protection depends...

The purpose of the study was to present detailed the stages in achieving the documentation necessary to upgrade the infrastructure of a road, after the landslides which led to the erosion of embankments. The chosen methodology consisted in designing and analyzing the topographical, geological, hydrographic, climatic studies and seismic classification of the area. Following the completion of basic works were proposed other works necessary to remedy the problem, conjunction with legislation to obtaining the Environm...

Evolution and development of landslides is influenced by a number of natural factors (soil, geological substrate, relief, climate, vegetation etc.) and anthropogenic factors (deforestation, overloading of land with constructions, inadequate meteoric waters drain, artificial undermining of slopes-embankments for roads etc.). In this paper we propose to analyze the causes of landslides that affected the county road DJ 585 located in Visag area, Caras-Severin county limit, and also to issuing technical solutions for ...

This paper comprehensively analyze the geology and tectonic settings of the western part of Albania favoring erosion process. A particular attention is paid to the neotectonics of the outer zones, as the most active one. Furthermore, data on intense geodynamics and displacement rates of coastal areas are discussed against the major regional tectonic blocs. Intense seismic activity, along the Adriatic-Ionian seismogenic belt, is characterized by more than 6 strong earthquakes (M > 6.0), recorded during the last cen...

In order to determine the dependencies between the chemical indices of the soils of the automorphic series and the results of spectrographic analysis, the field survey with HandHeld2 spectrograph was conducted at cleaned surfaces of the soil sections at soil sampling site. Data for zonal soils of Chuvash Republic (podzolic chernozem, dark grey forest soils, typical grey forest soils and light grey forest soils) with different erosion degree were obtained. The results of agrochemical inspection were analyzed along ...
