Distinguishing between the concepts of steady state and dynamic equilibrium in geomorphology [PDF]

open access: yes, 1968
The development of the concept of equilibrium in geomorphology over the past 15 years has been marked by linguistic difficulties due, in part, to the interchangeable use of the terms, dynamic equilibrium and steady state.

Origin, evolution and biogeographic dynamics of the European rabbit (Oryctolagus cuniculus) in Southwestern Europe

open access: yesThe Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract The Pleistocene is a key period for understanding the evolutionary history and palaeobiogeography of the European rabbit (Oryctolagus cuniculus). The species was first documented in southeastern Iberia at the beginning of the Middle Pleistocene and appears to have rapidly spread throughout Southwestern Europe, where it was found in numerous ...

Spatiotemporal patterns, triggers and anatomies of seismically detected rockfalls [PDF]

open access: yesEarth Surface Dynamics, 2017
Rockfalls are a ubiquitous geomorphic process and a natural hazard in steep landscapes across the globe. Seismic monitoring can provide precise information on the timing, location and event anatomy of rockfalls, which are parameters that are otherwise

Fluvial and tectonic geomorphology of orogenic plateaux [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Geomorphology is an expression of processes acting upon an area. The links between driving processes and the resulting geomorphology are far from being fully understood.

Leveraging Big Multitemporal Multisource Satellite Data and Artificial Intelligence for the Detection of Complex and Invisible Features: The Case of Extensive Irrigation Mapping

open access: yesArchaeological Prospection, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The detection of buried or obscured archaeological features remains a central challenge in landscape archaeology, particularly in the irrigated floodplains of Mesopotamia where levees and canals formed the basis of complex agrarian systems. This study presents a deep learning–based approach for the large‐scale, automated detection of ancient ...

The drumlin field and the geomorphology of the Mulajokull surge-type glacier, central Iceland

open access: yes, 2014
Here we present a new geomorphological map of the active drumlin field and the forefield of Millajokull, a surgetype outlet glacier, Iceland. The map is based on aerial photographs taken in 1995 and LiDAR data recorded in 2008.

Integrating Remote Sensing, Archaeological Survey and Geophysical Prospections for the Enhancement of Roman Doclea, Montenegro

open access: yesArchaeological Prospection, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The Roman city of Doclea is a key archaeological site of Montenegro, valued for its impressive remains and its role in the nation's cultural identity within European and the Mediterranean history. Doclea was the second‐largest city in the province of Roman Dalmatia, a municipium created in the first century ad and named after the Illyrian ...

The Active Morphotectonics Quantitative Assessment on the slopes of Alvand [PDF]

open access: yesمخاطرات محیط طبیعی, 2018
Neo-tectonic has a very important role in the morphological evolution of each drainage basin. The tectonic history can be retrieved by morphotectonics quantitative indicators in each region.

Hot and cold deserts as eco‐evolutionary arenas for understanding plant resistance to multiple abiotic stressors

open access: yesBiological Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT During their long evolutionary history, land plants have evolved a range of adaptations to different abiotic stressors. These help explain present‐day diversity and distribution patterns, as well as the potential resilience of natural and agricultural systems to a changing climate. Most previous research has focused on adaptation to individual
