THE SLANO BLATO LANSLIDE ABOVE LOKAVEC PRI AJDOVŠČINI
Abstract
Abundant rainfall in the unusually warm month of November 2000 was the main cause of floods and landslides. The largest landslide struck the alpine village of Log pod Mangrtom. The second in size, in terms of volume of moving land masses, occurred in the area of Slano Blato above the village of Lokavec near Ajdovščina. The Slano Blato landslide above Lokavec near Ajdovščina covered (buried) approximately 15 hectares of forest and grassland. The landslide originated on a slope built of flysch rock, and was comprised mainly of crushed flysch rocks and clayey gravel. The landslide is a periodical phenomenon that is triggered approx. every 100 years. This contribution presents a brief record of a landslide that occurred at the end of the 19th century, followed by geological, hydrological, meteorological and other data on the recent Slano Blato landslide.
