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

Mapping the interactions between rivers and sand dunes: Implications for fluvial and aeolian geomorphology [PDF]
The interaction between fluvial and aeolian processes can significantly change Earth surface morphology. When rivers and sand dunes meet, the interaction of sediment transport between the two systems can lead to change in either or both systems. However,

Geomorphology of Mountainous Deserts [PDF]
The peculiar land forms of the desert are due largely (1) to the paucity of plant growth, in consequence of which (2) disintegrated rock, produced more by physical than by chemical processes, which (3) vary with rock nature (hence granitic rocks assume ...
