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

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.

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