In order to lower the frequency of landslides in the region, the local residents can proceed with the following tips:

start contour plowing on the slopes where landslides happen, and  

plant vegetation on the slopes that experience landslides.

<u>Explanation:</u>

Landslide or landslip means sliding down of the mass of earth or rock from a mountain or cliff. This happens due to influence of gravity. Not only gravity, sometimes soil erosion, earthquakes and even volcanic activity may cause landslide.

Landslide may affect variety of resources and may cause damage to the properties. The quality of the land will be affected seriously.

Landslide can be controlled by minimizing irrigation of the soil surface and preventing water infiltration by covering the land with impermeable membranes.

Otrada [13]


1. Private Grants. Entire grant is owned by one or a few individuals as their private property. After meeting the conditions of the grant, the grantees could sell the entire grant (note that regarding sales of smaller parcels to be occupied by the purchaser, the custom of right of first refusal was often followed ).

2. Community Grants. Large tracts of land granted to a substantial number of people (usually from ten to one hundred. Both Mora grant and early version of Tierra Amarilla grant had seventy-six initial settlers ).

3. Hybrid or Quasi-Community Grants. Large tracts granted to one or few individuals with the requirement that the land be settled. Grantee induces a large group of settlers to move onto the grant and gives them each a small private lot for house and garden and grants them rights to use the remaining land for grazing, gathering fire wood, building materials, herbs, wild game, etc.
