Icelandic analogs to Martian flood lavas [PDF]
We report on new field observations from Icelandic lava flows that have the same surface morphology as many Martian flood lava flows. The Martian flood lavas are characterized by a platy-ridged surface morphology whose formation is not well understood ...

Prolonged Response of River Terrace Flooding to Climate Change
From the start of river incision onward, the abandoned terrace surface is only reached by floods during peak discharges. Two main flood facies are distinguished: a relatively high-energetic, coarse-grained facies and a relatively low-energetic, fine ...

Terrestrial analogs and thermal models for Martian flood lavas [PDF]
The recent flood lavas on Mars appear to have a characteristic “platy-ridged” surface morphology different from that inferred for most terrestrial continental flood basalt flows.

A late Holocene palaeoflood record from Slackwater flood deposits of the Llobregat River, NE Spain
The palaeofloods of the Llobregat River are the first to be reconstructed for a Spanish Mediterranean river basin. In total, 56 individual slackwater flood units were identified in eight valley-side alcoves located along two study reaches, Pont de ...

The Cork City Flood of November 2009 : lessons for flood risk management and climate change adaptation at the urban scale [PDF]
Flood hazards are a pressing challenge in several Irish and European cities and their impacts seem likely to intensify as climate change brings sea level rise, changes in storm patterns and increases in rainfall.
