Historical aerial and terrestrial photographs for the investigation of mass movement dynamics in the Ethiopian Highlands
Original language description
The edges of the Ethiopian Plateau are affected by frequent landslides predisposed by pronounced seasonality in precipitation, thick weathering mantle of volcanic material, and rough relief. We analyzed the three dimensional dynamics of three large landslides in Dessie using digital elevation models and orthoimages derived from a time series of aerial photographs reaching back to 1936. Furthermore we utilized repeated photography based on terrestrial photographs from the 1930s and 1940s to analyze landscape changes. It was revealed that the large sliding zone 25,4 ha in lacustrine sediments at Kerra locality existed approximately in the present extent already before 1936. The volume of depleted material of the 1986 1994 rock slide at Doro Mezleya locality was assessed as 1,82 106 m3 with mean vertical thickness of 48 m. Additionally we described the nowadays inactive Hot Spring landslide 12,9 ha. We documented a large scale reforestation of the area carried out as a remediation measure and rapid chan
