Characteristic Parameters of Tills in Relation to Earthworks

open access: yes, 2002
Evidence from fresh exposures in subglacial tills shows that they contain lenses and layers of sands and gravels and softer clays. This suggests that many subglacial tills could be described as deformation tills and excavation failures should be expected.

The mechanical, hydrological and mineralogic properties of 11 Antarctic tills

open access: yesJournal of Glaciology
The beds of many fast-flowing glaciers are underlain by sediment (till) whose physical properties regulate the mechanical and hydrological controls on glacier slip. Despite the importance of the till’s physical properties in affecting slip and hydrology,

Advances in Unraveling the Structure and Sodium‐Ion Storage Behaviors of Hard Carbons: From Basic to Extended Characterization Techniques

open access: yesCarbon Energy, EarlyView.
This review is devoted to introducing the structures and sodium storage mechanisms of hard carbon materials and analyzing the correlated advanced characterization techniques. The advanced characterization techniques are categorized based on the classification of signal sources.

Glacial landforms and late Cenozoic history of the weatern Sor-Rondane Mountains

open access: yesAntarctic Record, 1992
The western Sor-Rondane Mountains with the exception of several high peaks were once covered by the ice sheet. The mountains are in some places covered with tills weathered in various degrees.

Pleistocene glaciation of Fenland, England, and its implications for evolution of the region [PDF]

open access: yesRoyal Society Open Science, 2018
Detailed investigation of landforms and their underlying deposits on the eastern margin of Fenland, East Anglia, demonstrated that they represent a series of glaciofluvial delta-fan and related sediments.

A Reassessment of Petrochemistry of ~1.2 Ga Tonalitic Rocks of the Northern Tugela Terrane, Natal Metamorphic Belt, South Africa: Further Constraints on the Evolution of This Belt

open access: yesGeological Journal, EarlyView.
Our petrochemical studies on ~1.2 Ga granitoids of the Natal Metamorphic Belt, South Africa, do not suggest any property similar to Phanerozoic‐style subduction‐related granitoids. Plot of Kotongweni Tonalite in Y versus Sr diagram (after Moyen 2011), note that most samples have Sr/Y < 50.

Three-dimensional interpretation of geophysical and geotechnical investigation of landslides [PDF]

open access: yesArchives of Civil Engineering
Effective engineering design of structures requires a thorough understanding of the groundwater conditions of the substrate. In some situations, a three-dimensional survey is necessary. Landslides are examples of such cases.

Beach Gravels as a Potential Lithostatistical Indicator of Marine Coastal Dynamics: The Pogorzelica–Dziwnów (Western Pomerania, Baltic Sea, Poland) Case Study

open access: yesGeosciences, 2020
The petrographic composition and grain shape variability of beach gravels in the Pogorzelica–Dziwnów coast section (363.0 to 391.4 km of coastline), southern Baltic Sea, Poland were analyzed herein to characterize the lithodynamics and trends of seashore

The effect of awns on seed yield and germination characteristics in Elymus nutans Griseb.

open access: yesGrassland Research, EarlyView.
The effect of awns on seed yield. Three‐year field trials demonstrated that awns significantly regulate seed yield components and germination characteristics of Elymus nutans Griseb, laying a theoretical foundation for the breeding of high‐yielding forage varieties and seed production.
