Glacial geomorphology of the northern Kivalliq region, Nunavut, Canada, with an emphasis on meltwater drainage systems [PDF]

open access: goldJournal of Maps, 2017
This paper presents a glacial geomorphological map of glacial lineations, ribbed terrain, moraines, meltwater channels (subglacial and ice-marginal/proglacial), eskers, glaciofluvial deposits, ice-contact outwash fans and deltas and abandoned shorelines on the bed of the former Laurentide Ice Sheet in northern Canada.

Evaluation of the drainage system of Zagros Basin (Greater Zab River, northern Iraq) and insights into tectonic geomorphology [PDF]

open access: hybridArabian Journal of Geosciences, 2020
AbstractGeomorphological evaluation was carried out for three drainage basins named Hareer, Dwaine, and Hijran, which are tributaries of the Greater Zab River in the northern part of Erbil Governorate, the Iraqi Kurdistan Region, north Iraq. The exposed rocks in the three basins are mainly clastic rocks (sandstone, claystone, and conglomerate, with ...

Simulation of Drainage Network-System and Concept of Entropy in Geomorphology

open access: bronzeJournal of Physics of the Earth, 1970
An empirical rule (Horton's rule) is known to exist between numbers of branches and lengths of rivers.A drainage-basin network is simulated based upon a concept of random walk. Simulation is performed for various cases (inland lake, island surrounded by the sea, and alluvial fan).

Geomorphology of the Lozoya river drainage basin area (Community of Madrid, Spanish Central System) [PDF]

open access: closedJournal of Maps, 2014
The Lozoya river catchment is located in the NE part of the Spanish Central System intracratonic orogen (Community of Madrid, Spain). A detailed geomorphological map of this area was designed at 1:50,000 scale, in order to analyze surface processes and Late Cenozoic landscape evolution.

The hydrology of glacier‐bed overdeepenings: Sediment transport mechanics, drainage system morphology, and geomorphological implications [PDF]

open access: yesEarth Surface Processes and Landforms, 2021
AbstractEvacuation of basal sediment by subglacial drainage is an important mediator of rates of glacial erosion and glacier flow. Glacial erosion patterns can produce closed basins (i.e., overdeepenings) in glacier beds, thereby introducing adverse bed gradients that are hypothesized to reduce drainage system efficiency and thus favour basal sediment ...

Recent changes in drainage route and outburst magnitude of the Russell Glacier ice-dammed lake, West Greenland [PDF]

open access: yesThe Cryosphere, 2023
Glacial lake outburst floods (GLOFs) or jökulhlaups from ice-dammed lakes are frequent in Greenland and can influence local ice dynamics and bedrock motion, cause geomorphological changes, and pose flooding hazards.

GEOMORPHOMETRIC ASSESSMENT OF THE RIVER DRAINAGE NETWORK AT AL-SHAKAK BASIN (IRAQ)

open access: yesZbornik Radova: Geografski institut "Jovan Cvijić", 2022
This paper studies geomorphometric characteristics of the Al-Shakak drainage basin, which is one of the valleys of the eastern Al-Jazirah region in the eastern parts of the Misan Governorate in southern Iraq. The natural factors, which are represented by

Simulation of rainfall-runoff process using geomorphology-based adaptive neuro-fuzzy inference system (ANFIS) [PDF]

open access: yesCaspian Journal of Environmental Sciences, 2020
This research was conducted to present an integrated rainfall-runoff model based on the physical characteristics of the watershed, and to predict discharge not only in the outlet, but also at any desired point within the basin.
