LANDSLIDES IN SMEDEREVO’S REGION ALONG RIGHT BANK OF THE DANUBE RIVER

Summary/Abstract: Landslides are one of the forms of general denudation process. In geographic science this occurrence is also called: talus rock deposit, gliding, or land–slide (in Serbian language also known as „urnis, lazina, bregolazina”). Land–slides in Serbia are widely expanded. The biggest presence they have in the south–eastern part of Pannonian plain, more precisely on the north slopes of Fruska gora and the part of the Danube basin between Belgrade and Smederevo. The biggest land–sliding complex in Serbia is next to the Danube, in the district of village Brestovik and it is called Rujiste. Land–slides in Smederevo’s Danube basin are of recent character and the process itself is recurring because the Danube by eroding right river bank, disrupts repeatedly the stability of the hill slopes. In town district of Smederevo, active talus rock deposit endanger buildings, roads and other infrastructure, industrial and residential objects, orchards, vineyards.
