Quality assessment of DEM derived from topographic maps for geomorphometric purposes
Open Geosciences, 2019 Digital elevation models (DEMs) play a significant role in geomorphological research. For geomorphologists reconstructing landform and drainage structure is frequently as important as elevation accuracy.

Surface network extraction from high resolution digital terrain models
Journal of Spatial Information Science, 2021 A surface network is a topological data structure formed by a set of thalwegs and ridges on a digital terrain model. Its computation relies on the detection of saddles on the terrain.

LandExtreme meteorological events and anthropogenic influences determine important variations in microbial community composition. To know the extent of these variations, it is necessary to delve deeper into the geogenic factors to be considered as a baseline.

Asymmetric Changes in the Cooling Capacity of China's Lakes
Geophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 5, 16 March 2026.Abstract Lakes significantly influence local climate, yet a systematic assessment of their cooling effect across diverse regions remains limited. This study develops a multi‐metric (spatial extent, magnitude, and efficiency) framework to evaluate the spatiotemporal patterns of Lake Cooling Capacity (LCC) for 265 major Chinese lakes from 1980 to 2022 ...

Transactions in GIS, Volume 30, Issue 1, February 2026.ABSTRACT Climate change is intensifying the frequency and impact of extreme weather events, particularly in vulnerable Mediterranean environments. This study investigates relative morphometric changes within a gully system in the Guadalmedina River basin (Málaga, southern Spain) triggered by the 2024 DANA (Depresión Aislada en Niveles Altos), a high ...

A procedure for delineating a search region in the UAV-based SAR activities
Geomatics, Natural Hazards & Risk, 2017 We propose a simple geometrical approach for delineating a region above which an Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (UAV) should fly to support the Search and Rescue (SAR) activities.

High resolution geomorphological classification of benthic structure on the Western Pacific Seamount
Frontiers in Marine Science, 2022 The benthic structure of seamounts is critical for understanding the ecological environment and for assessing the influence of resource exploitation. However, the characteristics of the benthic structure of the seamount, especially for guyot, are still ...

Comparison of Algorithms and Parameterisations for Infiltration into Organic-Covered Permafrost Soils [PDF]
, 2010 Infiltration into frozen and unfrozen soils is critical in hydrology, controlling active layer soil water dynamics and influencing runoff. Few Land Surface Models (LSMs) and Hydrological Models (HMs) have been developed, adapted or tested for frozen ...
