Geomorphic signal of active faulting at the northern edge of Lut Block. Insights on the kinematic scenario of Central Iran [PDF]
Recent works documented Neogene to Quaternary dextral strike-slip tectonics along the Kuh-e-Sarhangi and Kuh-e-Faghan intraplate strike-slip faults at the northern edge of the Lut Block of Central Iran, previously thought to be dominated by sinistral ...

Analysis of Barchan morphology in the west of Loot desert using morphometric features [PDF]
In this article, we analyzed the morphology of barchans (crescentic sand dunes) using morphometric features of seven components of this landform in the west of the Loot desert near Pashoeyeh village. The components were height, width, length of the right

Morphological classification stability of Zab river channel on Rosgen method [PDF]
Introduction Rivers are one of the best geomorphic landscapes in which the connection between the system of forces and the forms of unevenness can be clearly understood (Chorley et al., 2000: 163).

Geomorphology and geomorphological landscapes of Fuentes Carrionas [PDF]
A 1:12,000 geomorphological map of Fuentes Carrionas (Northern Spain) is presented. Geomorphological landscapes maps are also shown to support map interpretation and show the area's geomorphological diversity. The maps were developed using the IGUL (Institut de Géographie, Université de Lausanne) geomorphological mapping legend.

Rock slope failure preparation paced by total crack boundary length
Gravitational mass wasting prediction requires understanding of the factors controlling failure. Prior to slope failure, cracks in the weakened rock are thought to grow and coalesce, eventually forming a continuous failure plane.
