Student-produced podcasts as an assessment tool: an example from Geomorphology [PDF]
, 2011 The emergence of user-friendly technologies has made podcasting an accessible learning tool in undergraduate teaching. In a geomorphology course, student-produced podcasts were used as part of the assessment in 2008-2010. Student groups constructed radio

The impacts of biological invasions
Biological Reviews, EarlyView.ABSTRACT The Anthropocene is characterised by a continuous human‐mediated reshuffling of the distributions of species globally. Both intentional and unintentional introductions have resulted in numerous species being translocated beyond their native ranges, often leading to their establishment and subsequent spread – a process referred to as biological

Zoning Evaluation of Liquefaction Potential Using VIKOR Model (Case Study: South West of Tehran)
تحقيقات جغرافيايی, 2016 Soil liquefaction as a natural risk of land instability and other problems. Liquefaction hazard zonation, the process of dividing an area into homogeneous regions based on their degree of liquefaction refers to the risk of instability.

Mapping the interactions between rivers and sand dunes: Implications for fluvial and aeolian geomorphology [PDF]
, 2014 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,

Geological processes shaping freshwater biodiversity: a synthesis of global evidence
Biological Reviews, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Recent genomic data highlight the key roles of geological processes in shaping the diversification and biogeography of freshwater lineages. Specifically, physical processes such as tectonic uplift, erosion, glaciation, lake formation, and sea‐level fluctuation contribute extensively to the evolution of biotic diversity within and among ...

Presenting a Geomorphological Conceptual Model of Construction of bridges in urban floodway- river valleys [PDF]
تحقیقات کاربردی علوم جغرافیاییGeomorphology is related to the processes and forms of the earth's surface, and any human activity, including the construction of bridges, leads to quantitative and qualitative changes in the movement and displacement of materials and kinetic energy and ...

Ecography, EarlyView.Ocean warming is driving the redistribution of species at a global scale. Biogeographic transition zones are hotspots of species range shifts, as both warm‐ and cold‐adapted species are found toward contrasting range edges. While anecdotal evidence suggests some distributional shifts have occurred in the northeast Atlantic, the empirical evidence base ...
