Soil-plant mercury concentrations in the Idrijca river terraces (Slovenia)
Geologija, 2004 The subjects of research are mercury contents in plants and soils on river terraces in the lower reaches of the Idrijca River. Samples of averaged meadow forage and plaintain (Plantago lanceolata) contain from 0.055 to 0.220 mg Hg/kg in dry matter.

River Research and Applications, EarlyView.ABSTRACT The geometry of alluvial river channels can give insight into their stability, which can inform predictions of morphological change, flood risk and ecological degradation. Fundamental hydraulic geometry relations can be used to estimate the equilibrium dimensions of stable river channels by evaluating the balance between the erodibility of bed

River Research and Applications, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Post‐flood riparian vegetation recovery demands significant attention; however, the complexity of traditional remote sensing methods often hinders environmental managers from implementing rapid vegetation monitoring. This paper developed a model using a Deep Learning Model within ArcGIS to classify and detect recovery of vegetation with high ...

RIVER TERRACES AND EARTH MOVEMENT ALONG THE RIVER TOYO
Geographical Review of Japan, 1960 The River Toyo flows into Atsumi Bay, taking the northeast-southwest direction along the median line which is one of the most important tectonic lines in Japan. There is a considerable difference in the topography and geology between the areas of the right side (Inner Zone) and the left (Outer Zone) of the river (Figs. 1 and 2).

Remote Sensing in Ecology and Conservation, EarlyView.Brazil's Cerrado valley wetlands—swamp savanna and gallery forest—are highly important for the biome's water cycle and carbon storage and are susceptible to degradation from the impacts of land use expansion and the climate crisis. In support of their detailed monitoring and assessment, we developed and tested a transferable mapping approach that ...

Sustainable Development, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Colorado's geologic, pedologic, topographic, hydrological, and climatic contrasts create strong but under‐synthesized opportunities for sustainable agritourism. This review investigates how geodiversity, and the broader environmental heterogeneity within which it operates, can be used to diversify farm income, strengthen place‐based visitor ...
