How can drone imagery and dendrogeomorphology contribute to GLOF hazard assessment in remote areas? A case study from Chilean Patagonia.

open access: gold, 2021
With the substantial glacier mass reduction projected by the end of the century, the formation and rise of periglacial lakes has to be expected. Even though these changes often occur in remote areas, they can nevertheless have catastrophic impacts on ...

QUANTIFYING THE RATES AND SPATIAL DISTRIBUTION OF RECENT SEDIMENTATION WITHIN THE HYDROLOGICALLY CONNECTED FLOODPLAINS OF THE MIDDLE MISSISSIPPI RIVER, USA, USING DIGITAL ELEVATION MODELS AND DENDROGEOMORPHOLOGY [PDF]

open access: green, 2017
The construction of levees along the Mississippi River [MR], beginning in the mid-to-late nineteenth century, have isolated the river along many segments from its floodplain.

Active geomorphic hazards in the Sâmbăta Valley, Făgăraș Mountains (Romania): A tree-ring based approach [PDF]

open access: yesGeographica Pannonica, 2022
The present study addresses, for the first time, the problem of spatio-temporal reconstruction of geomorphic processes using tree-rings in the Sâmbăta Valley (Romanian Carpathians).

Soil erosion rates based on anatomical changes in exposed roots - case study from southwest Bulgaria [PDF]

open access: yesSilva Balcanica, 2023
In recent years different methods for soil erosion assessment have been used. Because of its high accuracy in estimations, dendrogeomorphology was selected as one suitable and reliable scientific method to achieve the main goals of this study.&nbsp ...

Snow–avalanche history reconstructed with tree rings in Parâng Mountains (Southern Carpathians, Romania)

open access: yesRevista de Geomorfologie, 2020
Snow avalanches are a common phenomenon in Parâng Mountains (Southern Carpathians, Romania) perturbing tourism activities and associated infrastructures, damaging forests, and causing fatalities.

A new tree-ring-based index for the expression of spatial landslide activity and the assessment of landslide hazards

open access: yesGeomatics, Natural Hazards & Risk, 2021
Dendrogeomorphic methods enable a very accurate reconstruction of spatio-temporal landslide behaviour. Unfortunately, existing approaches of spatial reconstruction suffer from many imperfections (e.g. dependence on tree age or impact of forest management)

Dendrogeomorphic reconstruction of past landslide activity in the Jablůnka village (Czech part of the Outer Western Carpathians)

open access: yesRevista de Geomorfologie, 2022
Landslides represent an important and possibly very dangerous natural hazard. Dendrogeomorphic methods can provide unique data on the behaviour of landslides in the past by studying the tree-ring series of disturbed trees. Knowledge about past landslide
