A multidisciplinary study of an exceptional prehistoric waste dump in the mountainous inland of Calabria (Italy) : implications for reconstructions of prehistoric land use and vegetation in Southern Italy [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
The mountainous inland of northern Calabria (Southern Italy) is known for its sparse prehistoric human occupation. Nevertheless, a thorough multidisciplinary approach of field walking, geophysical survey and invasive research led to the discovery of a ...

Determination of future gully erosion risk and its spatially quantitative interpretability of driving factors in regional scale using machine learning algorithms

open access: yesGeoderma
Gully erosion has already caused severe damage to land production and ecosystem safety. It is pivotal to identify areas sensitive to and at risk from gully erosion for guiding gully erosion prevention and control efforts.

Mass wasting triggered by seasonal CO2 sublimation under Martian atmospheric conditions: Laboratory experiments [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Sublimation is a recognized process by which planetary landscapes can be modified. However, interpretation of whether sublimation is involved in downslope movements on Mars and other bodies is restricted by a lack of empirical data to constrain this ...

GIS-Based Machine Learning Algorithms for Gully Erosion Susceptibility Mapping in a Semi-Arid Region of Iran

open access: yesRemote Sensing, 2020
In the present study, gully erosion susceptibility was evaluated for the area of the Robat Turk Watershed in Iran. The assessment of gully erosion susceptibility was performed using four state-of-the-art data mining techniques: random forest (RF), credal

Under the Shade of a Coolabah Tree: A Second Cache of Tulas From the Boulia District, Western Queensland

open access: yesArchaeology in Oceania, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This paper reports on the excavation of a cache of stone artefacts, buried on the bank of a waterhole or ‘billabong’ in central western Queensland. This is an extremely rare find, and yet it is the second such site to be reported within less than a 10 km radius.

Historical evolution of gully erosion and its response to land use change during 1968–2018 in the Mollisol region of Northeast China

open access: yesInternational Soil and Water Conservation Research
Gully erosion is one of the most severe types of land degradation, hindering food production and sustainable agricultural development. However, the historical evolution process and the impact of land use change on gully erosion remain unclear. To address

Erosion signs features within gully-ravine catchment

open access: yesLand Reclamation and Hydraulic Engineering, 2023
Purpose: to determine patterns of formation of hydrographic network elements depending on the melt-and rainwater runoff and soil losses. Materials and methods. The studies were carried out in the upper reaches of the Bolshoy Log gully system, which is a part of the land use of the experimental farm “Polevoy” of the Federal Rostov Agrarian Research ...
