摘要
Landslide susceptibility assessment along the Araniko highway was done using the relationship between the landslide causative factor and presence/absence of landslide using linear discriminant analysis, and divided into Low, Medium, High, and Very High susceptibility zone. The spatial analysis of landslide distribution with its conditioning factors depicts 40 degrees-60 degrees of the slope, South-east and South direction of aspect, 0-5 km North from MCT, 10-20 km of distance from the epicentre, where barren land and forest area are found most susceptible to a landslide. This research can help undertake the proper mitigation and adaptation measures for the landslide risk along the Araniko highway.
