Rapid growth of human activities can also be attributed as one of the reasons. Thus, it becomes an important task to regulate land resource for sustainable development and environmental protection. Land use/cover (LULC) change studies have become a central component in current strategies for managing natural resources and monitoring environmental changes. The present study the land use/cover and its pattern was studied for the Sasan Ultra mega thermal power plant covering an area of 10 km 2 for three years (2005, 2010 and 2015) respectively. Chronologically, the year 2005 is the phase of pre-establishment of the thermal power plant; the year 2010 specifies the construction phase and 2015 is the operational phase. Landsat ETM and Landsat 8 data of remote sensing system were used for the study. The land use/cover (LULC) study showed a significant decrease in forest cover, while vegetation and wasteland expanded dramatically. Simultaneously, there is a decrease in Barren rocky land from 2005 to 2015.","PeriodicalId":111900,"journal":{"name":"IOSR Journal of Applied Geology and Geophysics","volume":"3 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2017-07-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"132554686","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

ChileshePR","doi":"10.9790/0990-0504015362","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.9790/0990-0504015362","url":null,"abstract":"Introduction : A geotechnical study was undertaken at Lubambe Copper Mine, Zambia, centring on understanding the variations in the uniaxial compressive strength of all rock units coupled with underground discontinuity mapping. The current mining method employed at Lubambe is Longitudinal Room and Pillar (LRP) mining with 30 m strike-wide panels. The Lubambe Copper deposit is located within the Central African Lufilian arc fold and thrust belt. It is located in an area underlain largely by rocks belonging to the Katanga sequence group. Problem: The mine has experienced a number of fall of ground incidents since its inception in 2011, which is against the company policy of zero tolerance. The fall of ground incidents were believed to be as a result of instability controlled by many factors including UCS and the overall jointing system. Significant dilution problems had been encountered in some stopes. Objective: The main objective of the study was to conduct UCS testing and underground discontinuity mapping at Lubambe Copper Mine in order to predict implications of tunnel stability, slope dilution and support design. Methodology: The study involved collection of samples of all rock units at Lubambe. Seventy (70) rock core samples 50 mm in diameter were prepared according to ASTM standard. The UCS was derived by uni-direction loading on the specimen with constant load increment until point of failure. In order to understand the geological structures that control tunnel stability, scan line discontinuity mapping was performed in already developed tunnels, which were plotted and analysed in Dips stereo-net commercial software. Results and interpretation: A summary of variations on rock units was established. Estimation of other rock parameters was performed in RocLab software package. UCS results of all the main mine rock units indicated significant variation, which led to the suggestion of a multi-point support design approach where UCS values were part of numerical indices used for design. Frequently, numerical indices such as RMR and Q, are determined on a contribution from mean UCS, that is, a single point. The situation such as encountered at Lubambe suggests that a multipoint design approach should be adopted, right from the outset. The mapping conducted revealed an interaction of three prominent joint sets which were identified to be controlling the overall tunnel stability as well as stope dilution.","PeriodicalId":111900,"journal":{"name":"IOSR Journal of Applied Geology and Geophysics","volume":"332 4 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2017-07-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"134482526","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This task is often carried out with a full hydrographic survey of the reservoir, which feeds data to a Digital Terrain Model (DTM) of the reservoir’s invert. In other regions of the world, this task is alternatively accomplished with the range lines surveying technique, which is less accurate but is less expensive and copious and therefore suitable for developing countries and large scale reservoir systems. This paper examines these two different approaches of the volumetric computation of the sediment deposits at Kremasta reservoir, Western Greece. The volume of the deposited sediment for the Agrafiotis segment of the reservoir was calculated from the DTM survey and was accepted as the true sediment volume. The accuracy of the range line technique was tested against the DTM survey using five different sets of range lines. The results show a considerable underestimation of the sediment volume for all the sets of range lines. The underestimation is more evident when the range lines are sparse and it is shown that beyond a certain number of range lines there is no improvement of the overall estimation.","PeriodicalId":111900,"journal":{"name":"IOSR Journal of Applied Geology and Geophysics","volume":"10 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2017-06-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"132592538","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
