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

open access: yesE3S 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.

Long‐Term Morphodynamic Responses to Flood Diversion in the Lower Kano River, Japan

open access: yesRiver Research and Applications, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Fluvial morphodynamics—the interaction between water flow, sediment transport, and channel morphology—is a central concern in sustainable river management. However, the long‐term effects of flood diversion remain underexplored. This study investigated the decadal‐scale morphodynamic responses of the lower Kano River in Japan following the ...

The Potential Applications of Optical Dating to the Sandy Uplands of East Texas and Northwest Louisiana [PDF]

open access: yes, 1998
The fine, sandy soils of East Texas and Northwest Louisiana have been the source of archaeological debate for some time. This discourse concerns the mode of burial of cultural material in the easily eroded soils and the mechanics of recent (Holocene ...

Strategies for Assessing Post‐Wildfire Geomorphic Resilience in Semiarid Rivers

open access: yesRiver Research and Applications, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT We review and summarize diverse components of a catchment that can be monitored after wildfire to assess the geomorphic resilience of the river corridor in semiarid regions. We distinguish upland portions of river catchments from river corridors.

Investigation of the relationships between basin morphology, tectonic uplift, and denudation from the study of an active fold belt in the Siwalik Hills, central Nepal [PDF]

open access: yes, 1999
The present study investigates correlations between an extensive range of geomorphic properties that can be estimated from a digital elevation model and the uplift rate on geological timescales.

Evaluating methods for high‐resolution, national‐scale seagrass mapping in Google Earth Engine

open access: yesRemote Sensing in Ecology and Conservation, EarlyView.
Marine habitat mapping using satellite imagery can provide baseline and monitoring data across large spatial scales and in remote locations globally. This study evaluates how key methodological choices influence the accuracy of open‐source (for non‐commercial use), cloud‐based satellite mapping workflows for seagrass meadows in the Maldives.

Isolation, Insularity and Resilience: A Review of the Geophysical, Socioeconomic, and Environmental Vulnerabilities of Gran Canaria and Lesvos Islands for Policy Interventions to Global Change

open access: yesSustainable Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The dynamic nature of small islands being geographically isolated and their perceived connectedness with global networks complicates research attempts to draw general conclusions on whether insularity leads to marginalization or strengthens their resilience for sustainable development.

The Flux of Impact Ejecta on the Lunar Surface from Scaling Considerations: Implications for Operational Hazards and Geomorphic Forcing [PDF]

open access: yes
The impact cratering process has been critical to the evolution of the Moons surface over its geologic history and remains an important ongoing process today.

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.

Flood Hazard Assessment Based on Analysis of Geomorphic Flood Index and History of Flood Events (Case Study in Kemuning Watershed, Sampang)

open access: yesIOP Conference Series: Earth and Environmental Science, 2019
Abstract Sampang is one of regency in Madura which always experiences floods every year. The frequency of flood events reach the number of 15 to 18 Sampang regency is divided into 6 watersheds that consist of Kemuning, Nedung, Blega, Samajid, Tambengan, and Tamberu watersheds events annually.
