Geomorphology and channel network patterns of the Mekong River in Cambodia

, 2012
Published, well-described examples of multiple mixed bedrock-alluvial character systems largely pertain to small to medium systems. No descriptions exist for large river systems such as the Mekong River in Cambodia (South East Asia).

AlpIce‐1: a database of geochronological and geomorphological constraints on Alps‐wide palaeoglacier fluctuations between the Last Glacial Maximum and the Holocene

Boreas, EarlyView.
The AlpIce‐1 database is the first compilation of published geomorphological and geochronological markers constraining build‐up, culmination and decay of glaciers from the Last Glacial Maximum through the Holocene across the entire European Alps. AlpIce‐1 integrates more than 4200 surface‐exposure and radiocarbon ages, homogenized, quality controlled ...

The Mystery of Baselevel Controls in the Incision History of the Central Colorado Plateau

AGU Advances
Erosion can remain active and changing in landscapes long after tectonic drivers have ceased, potentially due to local‐geologic controls, climate changes, or geodynamics. We present new fluvial incision‐rate histories and terrain analyses of the Colorado

Description and terrestrial ages of the Calama Area Meteorite Collection (Atacama Desert, Chile)

Meteoritics &Planetary Science, EarlyView.
Abstract We present a comprehensive study of a meteorite collection from the Atacama Desert (Chile), the driest and most climatically stable desert in the world. This collection includes meteorites from three adjacent Dense Collection Areas (DCAs) in the northern part of the Atacama Desert: Calama, Sierra Gorda, and Chug Chug, referred to as the ...

Distribution of Orthoptera across the river valley (Kaluga-Aleksin canyon, European Russia) and their dynamics under the overgrowing of meadows

Nature Conservation Research: Заповедная наука
Orthoptera insects (hereinafter – orthopterans) play a key role in grassland ecosystems and are often used as indicators of their condition. To conserve these insects and to model their habitat preferences, we need to know patterns of their distribution ...
