Semi-Automated Classification of Landform Elements in Armenia Based on SRTM DEM using K-Means Unsupervised Classification

open access: yesQuaestiones Geographicae, 2017
Land elements have been used as basic landform descriptors in many science disciplines, including soil mapping, vegetation mapping, and landscape ecology. This paper presents a semi-automatic method based on k-means unsupervised classification to analyze

Interannual Variation in the Area and Water Volume of Lakes in Different Regions of the Tibet Plateau and Their Responses to Climate Change

open access: yesFrontiers in Earth Science, 2021
The area and volume changes of 20 lakes that were present during the period 1976–2019 in different parts of the Tibet Plateau were extracted using Landsat remote sensing satellite images on the Google Earth Engine platform. Changes in the water volume of

Study on Fractal Characteristics of Evolution of Mining-Induced Fissures in Karst Landform

open access: yesEnergies, 2022
The karst landscape is widespread in the southern region of China. As a result of underground mining activities, the original stress equilibrium is disrupted, causing the redistribution of stress in the overlying rock layer, inducing the longitudinal ...

Calibration and validation of the SSSPAM coupled soilscape–landform evolution model for simulating short‐term gully development on a post‐mining landform

open access: yesEarth Surface Processes and Landforms, 2022
Post‐mining landforms consist of unconsolidated waste, which can be highly erodible. In such structures of loosely bonded material, rill erosion and gully erosion are significant issues that lead to landform degradation.
