Aspects of the geomorphology of the Greywacke Ranges bordering the Lower and Middle Waikato Basins [PDF]
The fault-bounded blocks which make up the Greywacke Ranges bordering the Lower and Middle Waikato Basins have a deep red-weathered regolith and are covered by mantles of volcanic ash which can be used for dating ground surfaces.

Flood magnitude-frequency and lithologic control on bedrock river incision in post-orogenic terrain [PDF]
Mixed bedrock-alluvial rivers - bedrock channels lined with a discontinuous alluvial cover - are key agents in the shaping of mountain belt topography by bedrock fluvial incision.

Evidence for surface uplift of the Atlas Mountains and the surrounding peripheral plateaux: Combining apatite fission-track results and geomorphic indicators in the Western Moroccan Meseta (coastal Variscan Paleozoic basement) [PDF]
This work represents an initial attempt to link the evolution of the topography in relation to the general tectonic framework of western Morocco. For this purpose, in a section of the Western Moroccan Meseta different tools are combined in order to ...

Phanerozoic Large Igneous Province, Petroleum System, and Source Rock Links
Exploring the links between Large Igneous Provinces and dramatic environmental impact
An emerging consensus suggests that Large Igneous Provinces (LIPs) and Silicic LIPs (SLIPs) are a significant driver of dramatic global environmental and biological changes, including mass extinctions.

Formation of Box Canyon, Idaho, by megaflood: implications for seepage erosion on Earth and Mars [PDF]
Amphitheater- headed canyons have been used as diagnostic indicators of erosion by groundwater seepage, which has important implications for landscape evolution on Earth and astrobiology on Mars.

Environmental changes on the northern part of Taymyr Peninsula during the last 62 ka were reconstructed based on pollen assemblages throughout a 46‐m‐long sediment core from Lake Levinson‐Lessing (74°27′54″N, 98°39′58″E). Environmental changes on the northern Taymyr Peninsula were reconstructed based on a new pollen record from a 46‐m‐long sediment ...

GEOMORPHOLOGY USING GEOGRAPHIC INFORMATION SYSTEM AND GLOBEL MAPPER
An effort has been made to evaluate drainage morphometry and its influence on landform processes, geology and erosion characteristics in Jordan Valley and surrounding area. Geological maps 1:50,000 scale and the professional Google Earth images were used

Weichselian–Holocene glacial history of the Sjuøyane archipelago, northern Svalbard
To reconstruct the glacial history of Sjuøyane, we describe coastal sedimentary sections in Quaternary sediments and constrain their chronology by radiocarbon and optically stimulated luminescence ages. The sedimentary sections largely consist of shallow (glacio‐)marine and/or littoral sediments deposited during high relative sea levels.
