Aeolization on the Atlantic coast of Galicia (NW Spain) from the end of the last glacial period to the present day: Chronology, origin and evolution of coastal dunes linked to sea‐level oscillations

open access: yesEarth Surface Processes and Landforms, Volume 48, Issue 1, Page 198-214, January 2023., 2023
The Atlantic coast of NW Spain, where shingle beaches appear today, has suffered an important mobilization of dunes from a sea level about −120 m (bpsl), 20 ky ago. This aeolization caused the collapse of coastal/fluvial ecosystems (as forests) until the Late Holocene.

Analysis of Barchan morphology in the west of Loot desert using morphometric features [PDF]

open access: yesکاوش‌های جغرافیایی مناطق بیابانی, 2018
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]

open access: yesنشریه جغرافیا و برنامه‌ریزی, 2021
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).

Linking uplift, erosion, and sedimentation using landscape evolution models: Madagascar since the Late Cretaceous

open access: yesEarth Surface Processes and Landforms, Volume 48, Issue 1, Page 215-229, January 2023., 2023
This paper uses a numerical landscape evolution model to reconstruct the topographic history of Madagascar since the Late Cretaceous. The model is optimised by balancing the volumes of onshore erosion and offshore sedimentation; the former is predicted with erosion laws and based on uplift history inferred from elevated planation surfaces.

Assessing the Impact of Chemical Algae Management Strategies on Anurans and Aquatic Communities

open access: yesEnvironmental Toxicology and Chemistry, Volume 42, Issue 1, Page 213-224, January 2023., 2023
Abstract Pond management with chemical and biological agents that reduce overgrowth of algae is an important means of maintaining water quality in residential ponds, yet the effects on nontarget species are not fully understood. We assessed the impact of Aquashade (a common nontoxic pond dye) and copper sulfate (a toxic algaecide) on American toad ...

Geomorphology and geomorphological landscapes of Fuentes Carrionas [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Maps, 2013
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.

Geoarchaeological characterisation of a Younger Dryas site in the Alpine uplands: Cornafessa rock shelter (Italy)

open access: yesGeoarchaeology, Volume 38, Issue 1, Page 35-56, January/February 2023., 2023
Abstract The effects of the Younger Dryas (YD) fluctuation on Late Pleistocene hunter‐gatherers' settlement and subsistence systems in the southern Alps are poorly known. This is primarily due to the scarcity of archaeological sites dating from the YD, in contrast with the extensive evidence available from the lateglacial interstadial and the early ...

Rock slope failure preparation paced by total crack boundary length

open access: yesCommunications Earth & Environment, 2023
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.

Reconstruction of the collapse of the 'Azure Window' natural arch via photogrammetry [PDF]

open access: yes, 2022
The Azure Window was a natural arch situated in the west coast of Gozo (Maltese Archipelago) that collapsed in March 2017. We employ a Diver Propulsion Vehicle-mounted camera system to capture data for the 3D-modelling of this collapsed arch via photogrammetry. We demonstrate use of this method to document complex underwater geomorphology spread across
