Spatial analysis of the rate of displacement of salt domes and its relationship with groundwater drops Case study of southeastern Fars [PDF]
Salt domes are one of the unique geomorphological phenomena that are important in terms of economic development, environment and tourism.. It plays a significant role in earthquakes and land subsidence as an effective aggravating factor in tectonic ...

A novel approach to the classification of terrestrial drainage networks based on deep learning and preliminary results on Solar System bodies [PDF]
Several approaches were proposed to describe the geomorphology of drainage networks and the abiotic/biotic factors determining their morphology. There is an intrinsic complexity of the explicit qualification of the morphological variations in response to various types of control factors and the difficulty of expressing the cause-effect links ...

Biogeomorphic recovery of a river reach affected by mining
The Grogwynion reach of the River Ystwyth,Wales, affected by mining in the 19th and 20th centuries, has shown a progressive reversion to a sinuous single‐channel planform since 2001 from an active braided pattern. A critical factor has been a change in the extent and type of riparian vegetation occurring within the active zone of the river due to the ...

Glacial geomorphology and postglacial landforms, derived from LiDAR‐based digital terrain models, together with radiocarbon‐dated sediment sequences, form the basis for landscape reconstruction spanning c. 2000 years (10,500–8500 cal. bp). After formation of streamlined terrain and ribbed moraine tracts followed intense glaciofluvial activity at ...

Morphometry and reconstruction of the Moallem-Kalaye landslide [PDF]
Landslides move a huge volume of materials from a place to another place. Moreover, landslides may lead sediment to increase in Downstream of the basin which can be a threat to the populations and may cause erosion, in addition to affecting the landscape

Detecting abrupt shifts in river channel position is challenging but important for understanding how rivers change through time. Using three decades of water occurrence data derived from Landsat, we create a method that produces time‐stacked images that highlight abrupt channel movements as temporal discontinuities in channel position, or tears in the ...

Topographic thresholds for gully head formation in badlands
Gully topographic threshold model was extended to badlands, on the basis of data collected in the Mediterranean environment in Italy and Spain, characterized by diversified climatic, lithological, geological and anthropogenic settings. Criteria for the attribution of curve number values has been more objectively defined in order to reduce arbitrariness

Monitoring the surface temperature and studying the land use relationship with surface temperature using OLI and TM image sensors (Case study: Meshginshahr city) [PDF]
Studies have shown that the role of thermal temperature measurement in studying and estimating surface temperature is very important. Earth surface temperature is an important indicator in the study of equilibrium energy models on the ground at the ...
