For millennia, natural processes such as tectonic uplift, volcanic, climate, erosion, sediment transport and deposition have shaped the Earth surface. The Earth science community also started to consider biota as a geomorphological agent that has a role in shaping the Earth surface, even if at a different scale and magnitude than that of other major ...

Abstract Human activities have significantly increased carbon dioxide emissions, leading to global warming and ocean acidification, which threaten marine ecosystems, including coral reefs with high biodiversity. Coral reef maintenance relies on a balance between calcium carbonate formation and dissolution. Among the processes, sandy sediments, covering

Abstract A comprehensive multi‐method geophysical strategy is used to investigate two faults in the Northern Upper Rhine Graben. Combining industrial 3D seismic data with our own 2D P‐ and S‐wave seismic, electrical resistivity tomography (ERT) and ground‐penetrating radar (GPR), we created comprehensive subsurface images of the faults. 3D seismic data
