Comparison of Deep Learning approaches in classification of glacial landforms

open access: yesInternational Journal of Electronics and Telecommunications
Glacial landforms, created by the continuous movements of glaciers over millennia, are crucial topics in geomorphological research. Their systematic analysis affords invaluable insights into past climatic oscillations and augments understanding of long-term climate change dynamics.

Out in the cold? A review of Early Middle Palaeolithic settlements in northern Central Europe, age data and geological preconditions for site formation and preservation

open access: yesBoreas, EarlyView.
The characteristics of settlement of Neanderthals in northern Central Europe during the earlier phases of the Middle Palaeolithic (Marine Isotope Stage 8–6) have been a matter of debate for decades, specifically regarding the population dynamics at such latitudes during the coldest phases. In this paper, we review the known archaeological record of the

High-Fidelity Inhomogeneous Ground Clutter Simulation of Airborne Phased Array PD Radar Aided by Digital Elevation Model and Digital Land Classification Data

open access: yesSensors, 2018
This paper presents a high-fidelity inhomogeneous ground clutter simulation method for airborne phased array Pulse Doppler (PD) radar aided by a digital elevation model (DEM) and digital land classification data (DLCD).

GIS-Based Automated Landform Classification and Topographic, Landcover and Geologic Attributes of Landforms Around the Yazoren Polje, Turkey

open access: yesJournal of Applied Sciences, 2008
The main objective of this study is to classify landforms within a watershed using advanced spatial statistics and image processing algorithms to identify and extract local geomorphometric properties of Digital Elevation Models (DEMs) with 30 m resolution. This study presents a customized GIS application for semi-automated landform classification based

Morphology and distribution of lakes under the Laurentide Ice Sheet: implications for ice flow dynamics

open access: yesBoreas, EarlyView.
This study examines the distribution and morphology of lakes under the Laurentide Ice Sheet (LIS) to investigate relationships with ice flow velocity, bedrock and basal thermal regime. Palaeo‐ice streams and lobes were important components of the LIS, and properties of lakes in those regions are quantified at high resolution.

Unravelling the evolution of the Frébouge polygenetic cone in Val Ferret (Mont Blanc Massif)

open access: yesBoreas, EarlyView.
Proglacial settings in the Alps are typically polygenetic, often characterized by a complex and discontinuous interplay between glacial, fluvial and gravitational processes. These processes yield high volumes of sediments, which usually exceed their transportation capacity.

Automated Landform Classification of China Based on Hammond’s Method

open access: yesJournal of Computer and Communications, 2020
The automatic classification of Macro landforms was processed with the program developed by Hammond’s Manual procedures, which based on properties of slope, local relief, and profile type, which consists of 5 landform types, 24 landform class and 96 landform subclasses.

Debris at the edge: sedimentological dynamics of Hintereisferner's evolving terminus and glacial forefield, Austrian Alps

open access: yesBoreas, EarlyView.
The interaction between glaciers and the debris accumulating on their surfaces is critical as the Earth warms, with consequences for ice dynamics, hydrology and mass balance together with slope and sedimentary processes. Understanding this interaction is necessary since it influences ablation rates, sediment and meltwater pathways.

Mapping landforms of a hilly landscape using machine learning and high-resolution LiDAR topographic data

open access: yesApplied Computing and Geosciences
Landform maps are important tools in assessment of soil- and eco-hydrogeomorphic processes and hazards, hydrological modeling, and natural resources and land management.

Flow‐pattern evolution of the Scandinavian Ice Sheet indicated by the subglacial lineation record over Norway, Sweden and Finland

open access: yesBoreas, EarlyView.
We present a 25‐stage reconstruction of the ice‐flow pattern evolution of the Scandinavian Ice Sheet based on mapping and analysis of ~240 000 subglacial lineations and lineation fields across Norway, Sweden, Finland, and parts of NW Russia. Our reconstruction uses a glacial geomorphological inversion approach, in which we generated 611 individual ...
