Geomorphic parameters, which reflect the migration of drainage divide responses, are widely used to assess tectonic activity. There have been several large earthquakes in the history of the Hetao Basin, within which the Sertengshan Piedmont Fault is ...

Geomorphic indices (e.g., the normalized channel steepness index (Ksn) and the stream length-gradient index (SL)) highlight changes in fluvial shapes and gradients. However, the application of these indices was seldom used to identify potential landslide

Tree rings as ecological indicator of geomorphic activity in geoheritage studies [PDF]
Abstract Mountain areas are characterized by geomorphic processes, especially mass wasting and snow avalanches, which may impact the landscape affecting also the biological component, trees included. If sites colonized by trees are characterized by geomorphic features with a high Global and Scientific Value, including Representativeness of ...

Neotectonics Analysis in the Basin of the North West Slopes of Sahand (East Azerbaijan) [PDF]
The evaluation of active tectonics in each region is important. Several faults in the Sahand mountain range provide a suitable basis for studying tectonic activities in the basins of this region.

Hiroshi Machida −respected tephrochronologist, teacher, leader [PDF]
Professor Emeritus Hiroshi Machida (Hiroshi hereafter) is the leading tephrochronologist of his generation in Japan. Perhaps more than any other geoscientist from Japan, Hiroshi carried the insights and advances of tephra studies and their application in

The role of geomorphic zonation in long-term changes in coral-community structure on a Caribbean fringing reef [PDF]
Ecological processes on coral reefs commonly have limited spatial and temporal scales and may not be recorded in their long-term geological history.

Scale-dependence of lithological control on topography: Bedrock channel geometry and catchment morphometry in western Scotland [PDF]
We propose that a scale-dependent topographic signature of erodibility arises due to fluvial and glacial erosion acting on different parts of the landscape at different times.
