Popis: | Landslides are among the most important geomorphological processes in the Transylvanian Basin, particularly affecting agricultural land and decreasing its value for producing specific agricultural products. The Someșan Plateau and the Transylvanian Plain are the morpho-structural units most affected by landslides, accounting for 3% to 10% or more of the territorial and administrative divisions in the Transylvanian Basin, including Mintiu Gherlii. In this context, where geology and landforms are relatively consistent, land use is the primary factor that can produce changes. Our analysis indicates that arable land and pastures have the largest areas affected by landslides, and this suggests that the agro-techniques used so far may not have been the most suitable. Therefore, preventive and control measures should be implemented to reduce the surface areas affected by landslides and minimize their impact on the local economy. |
