Strategies for Assessing Post‐Wildfire Geomorphic Resilience in Semiarid Rivers

River Research and Applications, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT We review and summarize diverse components of a catchment that can be monitored after wildfire to assess the geomorphic resilience of the river corridor in semiarid regions. We distinguish upland portions of river catchments from river corridors.

Characterisation of the surface morphology of an alpine alluvial fan using airborne LiDAR [PDF]

Natural Hazards and Earth System Sciences, 2008
Alluvial fans of alpine torrents are both natural deposition areas for sediment discharged by floods and debris flows, and preferred sites for agriculture and settlements.

A palaeoecological approach to neotectonics : the geomorphic evolution of the Ntem River in and below its interior delta, SW Cameroon [PDF]

, 2010
The Late Tertiary to Quaternary evolution of the Ntem interior delta in SW Cameroon shall be modelled. A step fault was formed along neotectonically remobilized Precambrian structures.

Addressing Biases in Ice Jam Observations by Integrating Multi‐Source Data in a Forested Fluvial Landscape, Southern Quebec

River Research and Applications, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Exhaustive long‐term and large‐scale ice jam records are scarce in most cold river environments. Many discrete events occur in small, sparsely populated river systems and are poorly represented in open‐source databases. These observation biases are transferred to predictive models of ice jams and the collective understanding of their formation

Spatial distribution of alluvial fans for evaluating tectonic activity: A case study from the Southern Kharqan mountain range, Hamadan Province [PDF]

تحقیقات کاربردی علوم جغرافیایی
The extent of mountainous and desert areas in Iran has caused the emergence of well-known geomorphological phenomena. Alluvial fans are landforms found in various locations.

Theoretical concepts about alluvial fans and debris cones: case studies of an Alluvial Fan in São Desidério (Bahia, Brazil) and a Debris Cone at Mount Somma, near the Vesuvius Volcano (Naples, Italy)

Revista Brasileira de Geomorfologia
Analyzing the last 24 years of the Brazilian Journal of Geomorphology and the National Symposiums of Geomorphology (SINAGEO), it is evident that there is a lack of studies on alluvial fans in Brazil and in Portuguese literature.

The surface features and soil pattern of the Hamilton basin [PDF]

, 1967
The Holocene history of the Hamilton basin and development of the soil pattern are closely related. The basin was partly filled by the large alluvial fan of the Waikato River which partly buried a hilly, ash-covered landscape.

Geologic context of geodetic data across a Basin and Range normal fault, Crescent Valley, Nevada [PDF]

, 2004
Geodetic strain and late Quaternary faulting in the Basin and Range province is distributed over a region much wider than historic seismicity, which is localized near the margins of the province.

Meander‐Bend Erosion Dynamics Along a Gravel‐Bed River: Insights From Short‐Term UAV Monitoring

River Research and Applications, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Riverbank erosion is a natural process in meandering rivers that contributes to sediment supply and geomorphic diversity, yet it can threaten infrastructure and human activities within the floodplain. Recently, many studies have used high‐resolution remote sensing technologies to measure bank erosion, but they often focus on technical aspects ...

Fluvial piracies in the NE sector of the Sierra de Aconquija (Tafí Valley, NW Argentina)

Cuadernos de Investigación Geográfica, 2020
The Sierra de Aconquija is a recently uplifted mountain chain in NW Argentina. The NE side of the sierra is drained by the Muñoz and Los Alisos rivers – whose base level is the Las Carreras Depression that is located to the SW of the Tafí valley.
