Mapping Vulnerability of Infrastructure to Destruction by Slope Failures on the Island of Dominica, WI: A Case Study of Grand Fond, Petite Soufriere, and Mourne Jaune

Andereck, Zachary Dean

Abstract Details

2007, Master of Arts, Miami University, Geography.
This thesis examines slope failure probability and the infrastructure at risk from slope failure on the Eastern Caribbean island of Dominica. Through a case study of the villages of Grand Fond, Petite Soufrie and Mourne Jaune, various landscape indicators are utilized in multiple logistic regressions to calculate landslide probabilities. Infrastructural components are examined in relationship to a landslide probability map developed for the research area.
