Kinematic analysis of the Pakuashan fault tip fold, west central Taiwan: Shortening rate and age of folding inception [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
The Pakuashan anticline is an active fault tip fold that constitutes the frontal most zone of deformation along the western piedmont of the Taiwan Range.

Response to comment by Daley et al., on “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
Daley et al. (2023a) argue that at least 10–15 years apart Digital Elevation Model (DEM) derived DEMs of Difference (DoD) surveys are needed to detect reliable geomorphic change within the gullied landscapes of the Great Barrier Reef, Australia.

Comparing coastal storm impact to decadal change in barrier island ecosystems [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
Highly dynamic coastal systems respond to disturbance events with a combination of topographic and vegetative changes. Sea level rise impacts on barrier islands have been quantified, but storm effects on vegetation are limited. Here we quantified barrier

Quantifying stream phosphorus dynamics and total suspended sediment export in forested watersheds in Vermont [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Globally the quantity of reactive phosphorus (P) in soils, streams and groundwater has greatly increased throughout the 20th and early 21st centuries. This phenomenon is problematic in Vermont, evidenced by the repeated cyanobacteria blooms in shallow ...

Vegetation on the move: elevational shifts and greening dynamics across the Himalayan alpine zone

open access: yesEcography, EarlyView.
This study investigates alpine ‘vegetation line' (the upper limit of continuous plant community) dynamics in the Himalayan alpine zone (HAZ) over a 24‐year timescale (1999–2022) using maximum NDVI products derived from Landsat series datasets, adjusted for sampling bias using phenological modelling.

Evaporite karst geohazards in the Delaware Basin, Texas: review of traditional karst studies coupled with geophysical and remote sensing characterization [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Evaporite karst throughout the Gypsum Plain of west Texas is complex and extensive, including manifestations ranging from intrastratal brecciation and hypogene caves to epigene features and suffosion caves.

Arctic rock coast responses under a changing climate [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
It has been widely reported that Arctic sea ice has decreased in both extent and thickness, coupled with steadily rising mean annual temperatures. These trends have been particularly severe along the rock coast of southern Svalbard.

A Novel Multilevel Conceptual Framework for Flood Risk Governance

open access: yesEnvironmental Policy and Governance, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Globally, flood risk is increasing as climate change progresses. Contemporary flood risk management practice often utilises hydrodynamic modelling (for hazard risk assessments), social vulnerability assessments, and risk communications in silo, which fragments evidence‐based decision‐making for effective flood risk management. We hence develop

An Evaluation of Low‐Cost Terrestrial Lidar Sensors for Assessing Hydrogeomorphic Change

open access: yesEarth and Space Science
Accurate topographic data acquired at appropriate spatio‐temporal resolution is often the cornerstone of geomorphic research. Recent decades have seen advances in our ability to generate highly accurate topographic data, primarily through the application
