Remote Sensing, 2021 Many biochemical processes and dynamics are strongly controlled by terrain topography, making digital elevation models (DEM) a fundamental dataset for a range of applications. This study investigates the quality of four pan-Arctic DEMs (Arctic DEM, ASTER

Archaeology in Oceania, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Shell middens in Gippsland along the eastern half of Victoria's coastline have usually been characterised as small, short‐duration camp sites with relatively low shell densities and low taxonomic diversity. Here we present new excavation results from a dense, high‐diversity site at Red Bluff near the eastern end of GunaiKurnai Country, a ...

Uncertainties Related to Scale and Sampling Window Size in Defining Macro Landforms
Coğrafya Dergisi, 2023 This study focuses on the statistical significance of sampling window sizes, which are used to define macro landforms and the differences they cause in definitions.

Subterranean environments contribute to three‐quarters of classified ecosystem services
Biological Reviews, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Beneath the Earth's surface lies a network of interconnected caves, voids, and systems of fissures forming in rocks of sedimentary, igneous, or metamorphic origin. Although largely inaccessible to humans, this hidden realm supports and regulates services critical to ecological health and human well‐being.

Ecologically-Relevant Maps of Landforms and Physiographic Diversity for Climate Adaptation Planning. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2015 Key to understanding the implications of climate and land use change on biodiversity and natural resources is to incorporate the physiographic platform on which changes in ecological systems unfold.

Ecography, EarlyView.Conservation has shifted towards a climate change adaptation approach in which expected species range shifts are increasingly considered to mitigate effects of climate change and habitat fragmentation on biodiversity. As part of this, ecological connectivity needs to be ensured to support gene flow and viable populations in the face of changing ...

Energy Science &Engineering, EarlyView.This study reveals the temporal and spatial evolution law of roof separation under the karst aquifer and the dynamic water inrush mechanism of roof separation. The FAHP–EWM–CRITIC combination weighting method was established to obtain the risk zoning of bed separation water inrush in a karst landform mining area. ABSTRACT Coalfields in northern Guizhou

Land Degradation &Development, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Permafrost is rapidly degrading in the sporadic zone, including palsa mires in Scandinavia. Peatlands in the area have likely accumulated heavy metals from atmospheric deposition of industrial contaminants in the wider region. As the palsa mire chemical composition is not well known, and in other permafrost regions the permafrost thaw may ...

Testing Semi-Automated Landforms Extraction Using Field-Based Geomorphological Maps
GeosciencesThe semi-automated extraction of landforms using GIS analysis is one of the main topics in computer analyses. The use of digital elevation models (DEMs) in GIS applications makes the extraction and classification procedure of landforms easier and faster.
