Summary

The causes of the origin of landslides on banks of water reservoirs are summarized and the methodology of their investigation including the prediction is presented. An example is given of bank deformations of the Nechranice reservoir in North-Bohemia, constructed in Miocene sediments liable to sliding.

Résumé

On présente un aperçu des causes de l’origine des glissements de terrain aux rivages de réservoirs à eau et la méthode de leur investigation y compris la prédiction de leur développement. On cite en exemple les déformations des bords du réservoir à eau de Nechranice en Bohème du Nord, situé dans des sédiments miocènes susceptibles au glissement.
