Abstract There is a growing body of literature that suggests riverine fish are some of the most threatened taxa on a global scale. Similarly, the literature suggests less‐altered tributaries may offer refugia for large‐river specialists. The greater Mississippi River basin, including the Missouri River system, has been subjected to anthropogenic ...

Terrestrial Analogs to Titan for Geophysical Research
Abstract Saturn's moon Titan exhibits remarkable parallels to the Earth in many geophysical and geological processes not found elsewhere in the solar system at the present day. These include a nitrogen atmosphere with a condensible gas—methane—replacing the Earth's water, leading to an active meteorology with rainfall and surface manifestations ...

Modeling Particle Transport Distances as a Function of Slope and Surface Roughness [PDF]
Significant effort has been put into modeling the evolution of hillslope profiles through time. The models use a continuum approach and are commonly deterministic.

Narrative Horizons: Deliberate Derangement in Oceanic Climate Fiction
ABSTRACT Although we live in the Anthropocene—the geological age of humankind, wherein humans have measurably impacted the biosphere—we struggle to narrate the Anthropocene. In particular, we struggle to give narrative shape to its foremost feature: anthropogenic climate change.

Mountain building processes in the Central Andes [PDF]
False color composite images of the Thematic Mapper (TM) bands 5, 4, and 2 were examined to make visual interpretations of geological features. The use of the roam mode of image display with the International Imaging Systems (IIS) System 600 image ...

Gully erosion in India: Geo‐environmental controls and region‐specific characteristics
Spatial statistical analyses using a novel spatial database of India‧s gully erosion landforms revealed that India has six major gullying‐affected regions, three of which (EU, DU, and KCH) are dominated by gully systems (gully networks), with badlands (vast intensely gullied landscapes) being predominant in the other three regions (YB, GP, and RU ...

Abstract Rivers transport sediments from mountains to oceans, shaping landscapes and transmitting environmental signals. This transfer is repeatedly interrupted by storage and remobilization, complicating efforts to reconstruct erosion histories. Luminescence‐based methods, which exploit the progressive zeroing of the luminescence signals (bleaching ...

Operational Near Real Time Global Riverine Sediment Flux Estimates From Space
Abstract We present global estimates of riverine sediment flux derived from an open‐source suite of algorithms using the Harmonized Landsat Sentinel (HLS) and discharge products. We estimated Sediment Concentration (suspended sediment concentration [SSC]) via neural networks, trained and tested on matchups of in situ and HLS data, obtaining a median ...
