Expansion of the Sahara Desert and shrinking of frozen land of the Arctic. [PDF]
Expansion of the Sahara Desert (SD) and greening of the Arctic tundra-glacier region (ArcTG) have been hot subjects under extensive investigations. However, quantitative and comprehensive assessments of the landform changes in these regions are lacking ...

Abstract Extreme precipitation events may cause flooding, slope failure, erosion, deposition, and damage to infrastructure over a regional scale, but the impacts of these events are often difficult to fully characterize. Regional‐scale landscape change occurred during an extreme rain event in June 2012 in northeastern Minnesota.

Abstract Large magnitude (Mw ∼ ≥6) earthquakes in extensional settings are often associated with simultaneous rupture of multiple normal faults as a result of static and/or dynamic stress transfer. Here, we report details of the coseismic breaching of a previously unrecognized large‐scale fault relay zone in central Greece, through three successive ...

We demonstrated a new workflow to extend and map a national classification into a new area. Three associations could be mapped using remotely sensed predictors alone (Sentinel and LiDAR), whereas two also required environmental predictors. Our map will guide the indigenous peoples of the area to manage threats to valued communities and their species ...

An Ontology for Submarine Feature Representation on Charts [PDF]
A landform is a subjective individuation of a part of a terrain. Landform recognition is a difficult task because its definition usually relies on a qualitative and fuzzy description.

Granite Landscapes, Geodiversity and Geoheritage—Global Context
Granite geomorphological sceneries are important components of global geoheritage, but international awareness of their significance seems insufficient. Based on existing literature, ten distinctive types of relief are identified, along with several sub ...

Landform Classification in Raster Geo-images [PDF]
We present an approach to perform a landform classification of raster geo-images to obtain the semantics of DEMs. We consider the following raster layers: slope, profile curvature and plan curvature, which have been built to identify the intrinsic properties of the landscape. We use a multi-valued raster to integrate these layers. The attributes of the
