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 ...

Geomorphology of marine and glacio-lacustrine terraces and raised shorelines in the northern sector of Península Brunswick, Patagonia, Straits of Magellan, Chile

Journal of Maps, 2018
This paper illustrates a detailed geomorphological map (scale 1:50,000) of the marine and transitional terraces (glacio-lacustrine to marine) and raised shorelines linked to Holocene glacio-eustasy and neo-tectonics in the northern area of the Brunswick ...

Riverbank dynamics in a semi-arid fluvial environment: A study of the lower valley of Wadi Tamri (Atlantic Atlas, Morocco)

Investigaciones Geográficas
Riverbanks in semi-arid Mediterranean environments are dynamic features constantly shaped by natural factors and human interventions. Wadi Tamri’s lower valley, with its large alluvial plain, fragile terraces, and mixed marine/continental deposits, is a ...

A proposal of a chronological model for the fluvial terraces of the rivers in northern Cantabrian Range

, 1996
A new fluvial terraces chronology Is proposed for the rivers in northern Cantabrian Range. Six terrace levels were identified and mapped. These have average heights of 2,5; 10; 15; 20; 35; and 63 m above river level.

Implications from Sedimentary records in Fluvial Terraces for Geomorphological Evolution in the Puli Basin, Taiwan

, 2013
Fluvial terraces play an important role for research on previous geomorphic processes as their sediments can record various sedimentation stages. In the mountains of central Taiwan, however, the formation time of sediments in the Puli Basin is still ...
