The Hidden Harvest: Harnessing Colorado's Geodiversity and Environmental Heterogeneity for Sustainable Agritourism

Sustainable Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Colorado's geologic, pedologic, topographic, hydrological, and climatic contrasts create strong but under‐synthesized opportunities for sustainable agritourism. This review investigates how geodiversity, and the broader environmental heterogeneity within which it operates, can be used to diversify farm income, strengthen place‐based visitor ...

Unveiling Lithological Diversity and Active Tectonic Processes of the Nabitah Fault Zone, Saudi Arabia: A Remote Sensing and Drainage Analysis Approach to Environmental Sustainability

Applied Sciences
Active tectonics in the Arabian Shield region has substantially influenced the drainage system and geomorphic expressions. The Nabitah Fault Zone (NFZ), located in the southern portion of the Arabian Nubian Shield, is an intra-arc suture that traces the ...

Extension of the Geomorphic Flood Index classifier to predict flood inundation maps for uncalibrated rainfall depths in arid regions

Natural Hazards
AbstractFlash floods are a rapid hydrological response that occurs within a short time with rapidly rising water levels and could lead to massive structural, social and economic damages. Therefore, generating flood inundation maps becomes necessary to distinguish areas exposed to floods. Hydrodynamic models are commonly used to generate inundation maps;

Mainland diversification and recent island lineages in the reduviid genus Tapirocoris: an integrative taxonomic framework with four new species

Insect Science, EarlyView.
Using an integrative taxonomic framework that combines COI DNA barcodes, geometric morphometrics and phylogeography, we revise the assassin bug genus Tapirocoris and recover seven well‐supported species, including four newly described cryptic species.

Location of Active Faults using Geomorphic Indices in Eroded Landscapes, South Taranaki, New Zealand [PDF]

, 2013
South Taranaki region has a number of active faults that show surface expression in the younger and harder materials near the coast and central volcanoes of the North Island, but these traces finish abruptly inland when they cross into older, heavily ...

Soil wetting and drying processes influence stone artefact distribution in clay‐rich soils: A case study from Middle Gidley Island in Murujuga, northwest Western Australia

Archaeometry, EarlyView.
Abstract Soils that contain swelling clay minerals (e.g., montmorillonite) expand and contract during wetting and drying, causing movement within the soil profile. This process, known as argilliturbation, can alter artefact distributions, destroy stratigraphy and complicate the interpretation of archaeological deposits.

Towards an ‘absolute’ timing of biostratigraphic and environmental phases from the Saalian late glacial to the Weichselian pleniglacial in central Europe—Insights from a lacustrine succession in Lichtenberg, northern Germany

Boreas, EarlyView.
Palynological records are central to the biostratigraphic subdivision of the Late Pleistocene in central Europe. Yet many interglacial and interstadial phases—such as the Eemian, Brörup and Odderade—remain only poorly constrained in time due to limited numerical dating.

Modified geomorphic flood index (GFI) using land use parameter and effective rainfall ratio at Cikapundung River

E3S Web of Conferences
To determine the flood inundation area requires hydrological data and measurements of river cross sections. Those data are very limited and expensive. The Geomorphic Flood Index (GFI) can be used to identify the initial potential for inundation of an area.

Palaeoglaciations in the Polar and Subpolar Ural Mountains

Boreas, EarlyView.
The Ural Mountains form a major physiographic boundary between the East European Plain and West Siberia, both repeatedly glaciated during the Pleistocene by the Barents–Kara ice sheet. Although the present‐day topography reflects significant glacial modification, the extent, chronology and interaction of mountain glaciers with the Barents–Kara ice ...
