Foredune responses to the impact of aggregate extraction in an arid aeolian sedimentary system
Responses in the aeolian sedimentary system affected by an historical aggregate extraction of El Médano (Tenerife, Spain) have been analysed. The methodology comprised two temporal scales: a long‐term evolution based on comparation of historical and current topographical sources, and a short‐term experiment to analyse the airflow dynamics, and the ...

River erosion undermines the 80‐ha Rangitikei Landslide and affects the rate of landslide movement over flood event to seasonal timescales. The landslide transitions from sliding at 0.01 m per year at its head, to flowing at >10 m per year at its toe.

The fate of sediment, wood and organic carbon eroded during an extreme flood, Colorado Front Range, USA [PDF]
Identifying and quantifying the dominant processes of erosion and tracking the fate of sediment, wood, and carbon eroded during floods is important for understanding channel response to floods, downstream sediment and carbon loading, and the influence of

Overall, despite the observed model sensitivity to the topographic data source, for the analysed channel reach, the recognized differences in the routing‐modelling outcomes can be regarded as negligible from a risk planning and management point of view, thus suggesting that the topographic data source does not truly represent a determining factor in ...

Bed Particle Displacements and Morphological Development in a Wandering Gravel-Bed River [PDF]
Bed particles were tracked using passive integrated transponder tags in a wandering reach of the San Juan River, British Columbia, Canada, to assess particle movement around three major bars in the river.

Channel Response and Reservoir Delta Evolution From Source to Sink Following an Extreme Flood
Abstract Disturbances such as floods, fires, and mass movements introduce large volumes of sediment into fluvial systems. Tracking the movement of disturbance‐generated sediment provides insight into the processes of fluvial system response. Few studies document a post‐disturbance response that explicitly links channel change to evolution of a ...

Geomorphological and statistical analysis of the dune changes in Lido di Classe (Ravenna, Italy) based on remote sensing techniques [PDF]
Coastal dunes are well-known for their significance in providing vital ecosystem services. However, its highly dynamic nature and its exposure to climatic and anthropogenic pressures make them one of the most vulnerable geologic features along the ...

Evaluation of short-term geomorphic changes in differently impacted gravel-bed rivers using improved dems of difference [PDF]
The evaluation of the morphological dynamics of rivers is increasingly focusing, in recent years, on the achievement of quantitative estimates of change in order to identify geomorphic trends and forecast targeted restoration actions.

Flood Impacts and Risk Assessment of Pleasant Creek in Capitol Reef National Park [PDF]
: Capitol Reef National Park (CRNP) is located within Southern Utah. Flash floods are one of the main hazards CRNP experiences and because of the remote location of the park, numerous parameters, and sudden nature of flash floods it is extremely ...

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 ...
