Modified geomorphic flood index (GFI) method on backwater problem in tidal tropical river for rapid flood assessment

open access: yesIOP Conference Series: Earth and Environmental Science, 2023
Abstract The Geomorphic Flood Index (GFI) model can show flood inundation in a watershed based on flood events. Flood inundation can occur because of the backwater effect in the river channel. The different water levels from the river and tide that occur downstream may temporarily disturb the water depth and flow velocity.

Mechanism of “seesaw‐type” rock burst in coal seam mining beneath mountainous areas

open access: yesDeep Underground Science and Engineering, EarlyView.
This study reveals the mechanism of “seesaw‐type” rock bursts during coal mining beneath mountainous areas. The advancing working face induces nonuniform fracturing of the overburden. The detached mountain mass then undergoes a seesaw‐type rotational movement around a shifting pivot, driving the primary fracture through a characteristic “open‐close ...

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

Creation of a Landslide Susceptibility Map Using Short‐Term Data From the July 2018 Heavy Rainfall in Southern Hiroshima Prefecture

open access: yesGeological Journal, EarlyView.
This work advances landslide susceptibility mapping by incorporating short‐term trigger data with landscape susceptibility mapping. We also examine the importance of downsampling, watershed delineation and geospatial correlations in evaluating outcomes.

From Highlands to Henge: Refining the Provenance and Transport Pathways of Stonehenge's Altar Stone

open access: yesJournal of Quaternary Science, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The Altar Stone, the 6000 kg central sandstone megalith at Stonehenge in southern England, is suggested to have originated from the Orcadian Basin in northeast Scotland, some 700 km away. However, its source location within this large basin remains unresolved and its mode of transport uncertain.

Identification of deformation variability and active structures using geomorphic markers in the Nahan salient, NW Himalaya, India [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
The morphotectonic study was carried out in the Nahan salient, located between the well known Kangra and Dehradun recesses in western Himalaya, India. We used various geomorphic indices namely stream length gradient index (steepness index), Hack profile ...
