Analysis of Heavy Metals Content as a Key Indicator to Predict shallow-Slope Failure
Research Output | Dar Al-hikmah Library | IIUM Only

Degradation or decline of soil quality that cause shallow slope failure may occur due to physical or chemical pro¬cesses. It can be triggered off by natural phenomena, or induced by humans through misuse of land resources, excessive development and urbanization leads to deforestation and erosion of the covered soil masses that causing serious thre
