Evaluating the Interpretation Uncertainty From the Manual Streambank Delineation
ABSTRACT Streambank delineation enables the development of two important parameters: streambank position and channel width. For older aerial images that cannot be easily processed by automatic methods, manual interpretation of streambanks is a necessary task.

The development of fluvial systems over long time scales is a complex interplay of tectonic, climatic, and lithological factors. The initiation and location of fluvial channels in the landscape is less well understood.

SOILS NATURAL FERTILITY OF MADEIRA-RO FLUVIAL PLAIN: A PHYSIC-CHEMISTRY ANALYSIS (CEC, m% E V%) OF THE STRETCH FROM PORTO VELHO-RO TO HUMAITÁ-AM [PDF]
This work evaluates natural soil fertility on plain and flooded terrace areas, at Madeira River-RO fluvial plain, based on physics and chemicals analyses, (pH, OM, Al+2 + H+, exchange bases K+; Ca+2; Mg+2 e Al+3), physic-chemical (CEC, m% and V%), from ...

Abstract For over a century, alluvial river terraces have been used as archives of tectonic deformation or changes in water discharge, sediment supply, and sea level. Despite this long history, such efforts remain challenging: using terraces as deformation markers requires knowledge of their initial geometry, and most attempts to attribute terrace ...

Geomorphological classification of urban landscapes. The case study of Rome (Italy) [PDF]
The results of a long-lasting geomorphological survey carried out in Rome are summarized. A method aimed at integrating survey data, historical maps, aerial photographs and archaeological and geomorphological literature produced a geomorphological map ...

A Lithospheric Drip Triggered Green and Colorado River Integration
Abstract The integration of the Green and Colorado Rivers shifted the continental drainage divide of North America, marking a key event in the hydrological and biogeographical evolution of the continent. Sedimentological and stratigraphic evidence shows that for integration to occur, the Green River likely cut through the Uinta Mountains between 8 and ...

Textural and Lithologic Differences of Cretaceous, Tertiary, and Quaternary Gravels of South Arkansas [PDF]
Stream gravels have been derived from the Ouachita Mountains since at least Cretaceous times. Past studies have assigned ages to gravel deposits in the basins of the Saline and Little Missouri Rivers on the basis of altitude above local floodplains. This

Interactions between groundwater and surface water at river banks and the confluence of rivers [PDF]
Riparian vegetation depends on hydrological resources and has to adapt to changes in water levels and soil moisture conditions. The origin and mixing of water in the streamside corridor were studied in detail.

Fluvial terrace dating using in situ cosmogenic {sup 21}Ne
Through the analysis of cosmic-ray produced radio-genic and stable nuclide concentrations, specifically {sup 21}Ne, we hope to date certain geomorphic features located along the tributaries of the Colorado River in the Eastern Grand Canyon and the Rainbow Plateau located in Utah.

Abstract Long‐term rates of crustal uplift in southern Calabria and NE Sicily are incompletely understood due to limited information about the age of marine terraces at 1.0–1.3 km above sea level (asl). This study provides a new constraint on high‐elevation terrace ages through integrated analysis of geochronology, stratigraphy, shoreline modeling, and
