Abstract Rivers in arid regions often rely on flow generated from wetter regions upstream, leading to high transmission losses of downstream flows. These transmission losses support a range of ecosystems, but partitioning the volume of the transmission losses across the floodplain, riparian zone and in‐channel is difficult.

Repurposing and recycling wind turbine blades in the United States
Abstract Wind energy is increasing in popularity worldwide as a low‐cost, carbon‐free energy technology. As deployment continues to grow, owners will need to conduct planning for end‐of‐life strategies for the components that are large in volume, number, and not readily recyclable in the operational form.

Topographic thresholds for gully head formation in badlands
Gully topographic threshold model was extended to badlands, on the basis of data collected in the Mediterranean environment in Italy and Spain, characterized by diversified climatic, lithological, geological and anthropogenic settings. Criteria for the attribution of curve number values has been more objectively defined in order to reduce arbitrariness

Abstract Geomorphology generally aims to describe and investigate the processes that lead to the formation of landscapes, while geochronology is needed to detect their timing and duration. Due to restrictions on exporting geological samples from Egypt, modern geoscientific studies in the Nile Delta lack the possibility of dating the investigated ...
