Fluvial hydrology and geomorphology of Monsoon-dominated Indian rivers

Revista Brasileira de Geomorfologia, 2005
The Indian rivers are dominantly monsoon rainfed. As a result, their regime characteristics are dictated by the spatio-temporal variations in the monsoon rainfall.

Proglacial lake records of Holocene glacier behaviour and catchment processes in Slettedalen, Northeast Greenland

Journal of Quaternary Science, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Constraining Arctic catchment response to Holocene climate change is vital for understanding future environments. We present detailed sedimentological, geochemical and grain size end‐member analysis of two Holocene (~7.0 ka to present) lake sequences, S1 and S2, close to Zackenberg, Northeast Greenland.

Historyczny układ hydrotechniczny w Jędrowie (województwo świętokrzyskie) zachowany w formach i osadach – studium geoarcheologiczno-konserwatorskie

Acta Universitatis Lodziensis. Folia Geographica Physica, 2019
Młyn w Jędrowie jest jednym z niewielu obiektów na terenie Staropolskiego Okręgu Przemysłowego, który zachował się w dobrym stanie. Dotyczy to również pozostałości wciąż widocznej w rzeźbie infrastruktury hydrotechnicznej oraz śladów jej funkcjonowania ...

The Glacial Legacy of the Geneva Basin: Morphology and implications of an intricate tunnel valley system revealed from 3D seismic data

Journal of Quaternary Science, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Like other perialpine basins and glaciated margins, the Geneva Basin in SW Switzerland is characterised by buried tunnel valleys, which are elongated incisions widely attributed to subglacial meltwater erosion beneath continental ice sheets. However, an inclusive understanding of the geological control on the evolution of the glacial landscape

Discrete differential geometry of fluvial landscapes [PDF]

Earth Surface Dynamics
Geomorphology as a discipline is defined by the use of topographic form to understand surface processes on Earth and other planets. In practice this requires drawing connections between quantitative metrics of surface geometry and rates of erosion and ...

FUSION OF MOBILE LASER SCANNING AND PANORAMIC IMAGES FOR STUDYING RIVER ENVIRONMENT TOPOGRAPHY AND CHANGES [PDF]

The International Archives of the Photogrammetry, Remote Sensing and Spatial Information Sciences, 2012
In recent years, laser scanning measurements have been widely used to detect topographic and urban features. In this article, we present a method to integrate mobile laser scanning (MLS) data and panoramic images for producing a textured surface model ...

Hydraulic reconstruction of catastrophic drainage from the Late Glacial, Lake Fraser, British Columbia, Canada

Journal of Quaternary Science, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Glacial Lake Fraser, which formed in British Columbia against the retreating Cordilleran Ice Sheet, stored ~520 km3 of water before its near‐total drainage into the Salish Sea during an outburst flood event. Despite the impact of the outburst flood on sediment transport and landscape evolution in the Fraser River valley, its peak discharge and

Columnanidus calitzdorpensis ichnogen. ichnosp. nov: A new Middle Pleistocene subterranean termite trace fossil from South Africa

Journal of Quaternary Science, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Termites are landscape geo‐engineers whose nesting activities substantially modify the physical and chemical properties of soils. Fossilised termite nests commonly constitute the only identifiable evidence of ancient termite activity and represent valuable trace fossil archives for reconstructing past environments.
