| Povzetek: | This study investigates groundwater flow patterns in a landslide area above the settlement of Koroška Bela in NW Slovenia using a series of tracer tests with sodium chloride (NaCl) and fluorescein (uranine). The tracer experiments, using a combination of pumping tests and continuous groundwater observations, reveal two distinct groundwater flow horizons within the landslide body: a prevailing shallower flow within highly permeable gravel layers and a slower deep flow in the weathered low-permeability clastic layers. Uranine injections suggest longer retentions, indicating complex hydrogeological conditions. Groundwater is recharged by the infiltration of precipitation and subsurface inflow from the upper-lying carbonate rocks. In the upper landslide, highly permeable gravel layers accelerate flow, especially during heavy rainfall, while downstream interactions between permeable gravel and less permeable clastic materials create local aquifers and springs. These groundwater dynamics significantly influence landslide stability, as rapid infiltration during intense precipitation events can lead to transient increases in pore water pressure, reducing shear strength and potentially triggering slope movement. Meanwhile, slow deep flows contribute to prolonged saturation of critical failure surfaces, which may weaken the landslide structure over time. The study emphasizes the region’s geological heterogeneity and landslide stability, providing valuable insights into the groundwater dynamics of this challenging environment. By integrating hydrogeological assessments with engineering measures, the study provides supportive information for mitigating landslide risks and improving groundwater management strategies. |
