Identification, prediction and mitigation of sinkhole hazards in evaporite karst areas [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
Sinkholes usually have a higher probability of occurrence and a greater genetic diversity in evaporite terrains than in carbonate karst areas. This is because evaporites have a higher solubility, and commonly a lower mechanical strength.

Estimating soil degradation in montane grasslands of North-eastern Italian Alps (Italy) [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
Grasslands cover a large portion of the terrestrial ecosystems, and are vital for biodiversity conservation, environmental protection and livestock husbandry.

Geomorphic time series reveals the constructive and destructive history of Havre caldera volcano, Kermadec arc

open access: yesFrontiers in Earth Science
Monitoring active seafloor processes requires repeated, comparable surveys to enable change detection. The change detection of the deep ocean floor, however, is rare due to a paucity of repeat data at an appropriate resolution.

Using Lidar Data to Analyse Sinkhole Characteristics Relevant for Understory Vegetation under Forest Cover\u2014Case Study of a High Karst Area in the Dinaric Mountains [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
In this article, we investigate the potential for detection and characterization of sinkholes under dense forest cover by using airborne laser scanning data.

Mass wasting triggered by seasonal CO2 sublimation under Martian atmospheric conditions: Laboratory experiments [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Sublimation is a recognized process by which planetary landscapes can be modified. However, interpretation of whether sublimation is involved in downslope movements on Mars and other bodies is restricted by a lack of empirical data to constrain this ...

Comment on “Assessing gully erosion and rehabilitation using multi temporal LiDAR DEMs: Case study from the Great Barrier Reef catchments, Australia” by Khan et al., 2023

open access: yesInternational Soil and Water Conservation Research
Geomorphic change detection (GCD) using high resolution topographic data can provide important insights into geomorphological systems. However, considerations must first be given to the mechanisms and dynamics producing landscape change when considering ...

Tracking the Evolution of Riverbed Morphology on the Basis of UAV Photogrammetry

open access: yesRemote Sensing, 2021
Unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) photogrammetry has recently become a widespread technique to investigate and monitor the evolution of different types of natural processes.

Geomorphic Change Detection Using Cost-Effective Structure-from-Motion Photogrammetry: Evaluation of Direct Georeferencing from Consumer-Grade UAS at Orewa Beach (New Zealand) [PDF]

open access: yesPhotogrammetric Engineering & Remote Sensing, 2020
Unmanned aerial systems (UAS) and structure-from-motion photogrammetry are transforming the way we produce topo- graphic data, with applications covering many disciplines in the geosciences, including coastal studies. To overcome limitations of ground control points (GCPs), we evaluate direct georeferencing (DG) of consumer UAS imagery for the cost ...

Assessing gully erosion and rehabilitation using multi temporal LiDAR DEMs: Case study from the Great Barrier Reef catchments, Australia

open access: yesInternational Soil and Water Conservation Research
Millions of dollars are being spent on gully rehabilitation to help reduce excess fine sediment delivery to the Great Barrier Reef (GBR). There is an urgent need for (i) prioritisation of active gullies for rehabilitation and (ii) the development of ...

Evaluating the potential of post-processing kinematic (PPK) georeferencing for UAV-based structure- from-motion (SfM) photogrammetry and surface change detection [PDF]

open access: yesEarth Surface Dynamics, 2019
Images captured by unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) and processed by structure-from-motion (SfM) photogrammetry are increasingly used in geomorphology to obtain high-resolution topography data. Conventional georeferencing using ground control points (GCPs)
