Stochastic and deterministic processes influencing mountain mire diatom communities across spatial scales

open access: yesEcography, EarlyView.
Understanding how deterministic and stochastic processes influence the shape of microorganism community assembly across different spatial scales is essential for disentangling biodiversity patterns. Mires are nutrient‐poor and heterogeneous wetlands that form isolated habitats supporting highly diverse diatom assemblages, particularly in mountainous ...

Zoning Evaluation of Liquefaction Potential Using VIKOR Model (Case Study: South West of Tehran)

open access: yesتحقيقات 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.

Global threats, local opportunities: ice‐related landforms provide refugia for high‐elevation plants and arthropods

open access: yesEcography, EarlyView.
Ice‐related landforms in mountain areas have been hypothesized to play a key role in the survival of cold‐adapted species threatened by climate change. However, our understanding of such landforms acting as refugia remains speculative. Here we analyse occurrence data, collected through a standardized sampling at 471 sampling points across the European ...

Presenting a Geomorphological Conceptual Model of Construction of bridges in urban floodway- river valleys [PDF]

open access: yesتحقیقات کاربردی علوم جغرافیایی
Geomorphology 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 ...

Mesozoic–Cenozoic Thermochronology of the Tarim–Southern Tianshan System, NW China

open access: yesGeological Journal, EarlyView.
Tectonothermal history of the Tarim–Southern Tianshan system compared with the major tectonic events at far‐field plate margins. ABSTRACT The Tarim Basin, an oil‐bearing basin in northwest China, is tectonically and sedimentologically linked to the Southern Tianshan Orogenic Belt.

Creation of a Landslide Susceptibility Map Using Short‐Term Data From the July 2018 Heavy Rainfall in Southern Hiroshima Prefecture

open access: yesGeological Journal, EarlyView.
This work advances landslide susceptibility mapping by incorporating short‐term trigger data with landscape susceptibility mapping. We also examine the importance of downsampling, watershed delineation and geospatial correlations in evaluating outcomes.

Geomorphology, tectonics, and exploration [PDF]

open access: yes, 1985
Explorationists interpret satellite images for tectonic features and patterns that may be clues to mineral and energy deposits. The tectonic features of interest range in scale from regional (sedimentary basins, fold belts) to local (faults, fractures ...

Initial response of Orthoptera to beaver (Castor fiber) reintroductions in post-arable enclosures [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Orthoptera Research
Rewilding aims to restore ‘self-willed’ ecosystems involving the creation of habitat subject to stochastic disturbance, connected by favorable corridors for dispersal of animals including insects.

CAPITALIZING OF THE GEOTOURISM POTENTIAL AND ITS IMPACT ON RELIEF. CASE STUDY: COZIA MASSIF, ROMANIA [PDF]

open access: yesGeo Journal of Tourism and Geosites, 2019
In the mountain area, the relief is the element of the geographical environment with the highest degree of tourist attractiveness, due to the variety and spectacularity of its forms and processes.
