Sustainable Development, EarlyView.ABSTRACT The application of circular economy, which aims to maximize efficiency and reduce waste, to renewable energy sources necessitates, given the intermittent nature of the latter, robust energy storage solutions to ensure grid stability and avoid wasting energy.

تحقيقات جغرافيايی, 2018 Gully erosion is the most advanced type of water erosion in watersheds that produces large volumes of sediment that and cause a lot of damage. Thus mapping susceptibility to gully erosion and identification of factors can help managers and decision ...

Note on recent Gully Erosion [PDF]
New Zealand Journal of Geology and Geophysics, 1964 Abstract During recent high rainfalls in Canterbury a small mountain stream that had been diverted over a rock‐defended terrace eroded a gully 150 yd long, 50 yd wide, and 25 ft deep during a period of a few hours.

Systems Research and Behavioral Science, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Alternative forms of natural resource management are required. Participation of local actors is necessary but not sufficient, for moving away from the conventional top‐down approaches. This paper develops a 5‐point framework for enabling meaningful participation in rural landscape governance.

MERGE: modelling erosion resistance for gully erosion – a process-based model of erosion from an idealised linear gully [PDF]
Soil Research, 2020 Gullies are responsible for as much as 40% of the accelerated erosion impacting the Great Barrier Reef lagoon. Consequently, to protect the reef from the impacts of poor water quality associated with eroded sediment, the remediation of gullied landscapes is important.

Terrain Synthesis and Authoring based on Iso‐Contours
Computer Graphics Forum, EarlyView.Abstract Digital terrains are central to realistic landscape depiction, yet authoring tools must balance perceptual realism with intuitive artistic control. We propose a compact vector‐based representation that models terrain as nested iso‐contours, inspired by geomorphology and cartography.

Freeze-Thaw Induced Gully Erosion: A Long-Term High-Resolution Analysis
Agronomy, 2019 Gullies are significant contributors of sediment to streams in the southeastern USA. This study investigated gully erosion in the clay-rich soils of east Tennessee under a humid subtropical climate.

Journal of Agrarian Change, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Following recent calls to deepen understanding of the Global Pesticide Complex, this article delves into the China‐to‐Australia supply chain of a single herbicide—paraquat. First released in the United Kingdom in the 1960s, acutely toxic paraquat is now primarily produced in China.
