The relationship between land management and the nature of helophytes in small lakes (Eastern Poland)

open access: yesLimnological Review, 2016
The aim of this study was to determine the relationship between the development of rush zones in small lakes and the utilization and condition of surrounding lands. Generally, the width of the helophyte zone increased along shores with gentle slopes (>5˚)

Geochronological reconstruction of the Lateglacial deglaciation in the Arve Valley (Northern French Alps)

open access: yesJournal of Quaternary Science, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The timing and spatial patterns of glaciers retreat in the Northern French Alps during the Lateglacial (19.0–11.7 ka) remain debated, reflecting discrepancies among available chronological data sets. The complex interactions between major glaciers, such as the Rhône and Arve glaciers to the north and the Isère glacier to the south, represent a

Decoupling glacier retreat and surface stabilization on the Snežnik Plateau (Slovenia), insights from in situ cosmogenic 36Cl exposure and depth‐profile ages

open access: yesJournal of Quaternary Science, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Glaciokarst landscapes pose distinctive challenges for cosmogenic dating because meltwater and runoff can be rapidly rerouted into ponors and conduit networks, weakening glacier–river coupling and promoting local sediment storage. We reconstruct glacier retreat and postglacial stabilization on the Snežnik Plateau (SW Slovenia) using in situ ...

Refinement of the Quaternary seismic stratigraphy and analysis of buried glacial channels on the Labrador Shelf

open access: yesJournal of Quaternary Science, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The Laurentide Ice Sheet covered vast areas of North America during the Wisconsinan, including the Labrador Shelf, off the coast of eastern Canada. The shelf is characterized by glacial cross‐shelf troughs, which have been considered as predominantly eroded by the last ice advance.

« Relief » et « montagne » : les enseignants de l’école élémentaire confrontés à la mise en mots et en images de la saillance

open access: yesRevue de Géographie Alpine, 2016
In this paper my goal is to indicate how children’s geographies of the alpine mountain resonate with academic knowledge about the mountain. The aim is to show how teachers of primary school students (aged 6 to 11) use the words “relief” and “mountain ...

New geochronological constraints on Late Pleistocene glaciation in the southern Cadí Massif, SE Pyrenees

open access: yesJournal of Quaternary Science, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The Cadí Massif (42°17′09″ N, 1°38′11″ E; 2649 m a.s.l.) in the southeastern Pyrenees preserves clear evidence of Late Pleistocene glaciation, although previous research has focused almost exclusively on its northern slope. By contrast, the southern slope has remained largely unexplored.

Integrating Environmental Perceptions and Value Cognition to Understand Farmers' Livelihood Capacity: Evidence From a Rocky Desertification Area in China

open access: yesLand Degradation &Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Rocky desertification poses a serious threat to the sustainable development of karst regions. Large‐scale ecological restoration projects for ecologically fragile areas not only improve regional ecological quality but also affect farmers' perception of rocky desertification control (PRDC) and value cognition.

Relationship between soil morphology and variability of upland degradation in Bogowonto Watershed, Central Java, Indonesia

open access: yesJournal of Degraded and Mining Lands Management, 2020
Land-use change and lack of conservation in Bogowonto Watershed area have caused land degradation due to erosion and landslides. The rate of land degradation can be measured through the morphological characteristics of the soil and landscape.
