英文摘要 | Sinkholes and land cracks are the phenomena that are common in the semi-arid and arid lands. The destructive effects of sinkholes include destruction of infrastructure such as energy transmission lines and buildings including residential areas which lead to dangers to human life. In the study area, water abstraction from groundwater for irrigation intensified the sinkhole and land crack formation. Soil parameters such as clay percentage, cracks, and sinkholes dominated in different lands. This study focused on the Abarkooh plain with an area of about 200 square kilometers. The region consisted of medium to fine particles of an alluvial fan that had led from the southwest to the northeast which terminated to low land of Abarkooh salty playa. In this research, 129 samples were taken at grid points from the top soils, and four soil samples were collected from the profile of the sample sinkhole for detailed chemical, physical, and mechanical analyses. Clay mineralogy was performed from selected soil samples after primary routine chemical, physical, and mechanical analyses. Multiple linear regression (MLR) as mathematical function was used for predicting sinkhole hazards with soil properties data. The results revealed that soil properties such as water-soluble Na+ and Mg2+ and lime percentage in the soils had important role to soil divergence and liquid soil clays for sinkhole occurrence. Clay mineralogy from clay particles demonstrated that the mixed clay minerals with dominance of chlorite in the area and play the role of montmorillonite could cause soil divergence. The MLR could predict sinkhole hazard with high accuracy, and the ground-penetrating radar (GPR) results confirmed it as complementary method test. It is suggested that land conservation be introduced as the best alternative in the hazard zones of the sinkhole. |
