Submerged geomorphic record of Quaternary palaeoshorelines: terraces and clinothems along a shelf‐edge in the Žirje Archipelago, Adriatic Sea

Boreas, EarlyView.
Numerous studies have shown that during the Quaternary there were substantial fluctuations in sea level in response to glacial–interglacial climate variability, reaching lowstand positions up to 134 m below the present sea level (b.s.l.). These fluctuations have had a strong influence on the morphology of shallow shelf seas, which preserve evidence of ...

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.

Development and application of landform segmentation procedures

, 2001
Landscape-scale approaches to research in soil science are explicitly focused on transfers of components within and between landscapes. Despite wide-spread recognition of the importance of these transfers, the application of landscape-scale approaches ...

Authoring Terrestrial Planets with Diffusion Models

Computer Graphics Forum, EarlyView.
Abstract To support the design and subsequent generation of terrestrial planets for use in the creative media, we propose a solution that employs a generative model trained on satellite data from planetary bodies with a defined solid surface, such as the Earth and Mars.

Morpho‐structural analysis of impact craters on Pluto: Implications for the study of complex craters

Meteoritics &Planetary Science, EarlyView.
Abstract We used Pluto's global digital elevation model to automatically perform a morphometric analysis of impact craters. Triangular irregular networks (TINs) were generated for each crater, providing a detailed representation of crater topography and enabling more accurate morpho‐structural analysis. A dedicated toolkit generated radial profiles for

Microsite selection improves post‐fire restoration of singleleaf pinyon pine on Washoe Tribal lands in the Pine Nut Mountains, NV, USA

Restoration Ecology, EarlyView.
Abstract Introduction Singleleaf pinyon pine (Pinus monophylla) holds both ecological and cultural significance for Indigenous Tribes of the Great Basin, such as the Washoe Tribe of Nevada and California. Recent wildfires on Washoe Tribal lands have resulted in the loss of important pinyon pine groves, prompting collaborative efforts to develop post ...

Landform Analysis Using Terrain Attributes. A Gis Application on the Island of Ikaria (Aegean Sea, Greece)

, 2017
The main objective of this study is to classify the landforms of Ikaria Island by conducting morphometric analysis. The whole classification process is based on the calculation of the Topographic Position Index (TPI).

Multi‐decadal woodland recovery after land abandonment: environmental constraints on passive rewilding in Mediterranean landscapes

Restoration Ecology, EarlyView.
Abstract Introduction Across the Mediterranean Basin, land abandonment has opened large areas to passive rewilding, raising questions about the pace and variability of secondary succession in these landscapes and how ecological and abiotic gradients mediate vegetation recovery in post‐agricultural landscapes. Objectives This study aims to quantify long‐

Comparison of Terrain Indices and Landform Classification Procedures in Low-Relief Agricultural Fields

, 2016
Landforms control the spatial distribution of numerous factors associated with agronomy and water quality. Although curvature and slope are the fundamental surface derivatives used in landform classification procedures, methodologies for landform ...

CrustCheck: a conceptual framework for interpreting biocrust trait–function relationships in drylands

Restoration Ecology, EarlyView.
Abstract Introduction Biocrusts are increasingly recognized for their contribution to soil stability, hydrology, nutrient cycling, and energy balance in drylands, yet practical field methods for assessing functional roles are limited. Existing approaches typically rely on cover estimates, taxonomic identification, or laboratory analyses, providing ...
