Heinrich Climatic Events in North West of Iran in Late Pleistocene [PDF]
Aims of This research is investigation and reconstruction of climate change during quaternary period according to Urmia Lake terraces and we use elevation changes of this lake as indicator of climate change. 14 lake terraces were found during field work.

The spread of non‐native species
ABSTRACT The global redistribution of species through human agency is one of the defining ecological signatures of the Anthropocene, with biological invasions reshaping biodiversity patterns, ecosystem processes and services, and species interactions globally.

Extension of the Upper Yellow River into the Tibet Plateau: Review and New Data
The Wufo Basin at the margin of the northeastern Tibet Plateau connects the upstream reaches of the Yellow River with the lowland catchment downstream, and the fluvial terrace sequence in this basin provides crucial clues to understand the evolution ...

Quaternary terraces of the Želivka River [PDF]
This article presents the results of a geomorphological analysis of localities of Quaternary river terraces along the Želivka River and its historical-genetic interpretation in light of the formation of the Sázava terrace system. In addition, the morphogenetic characteristics of the Želivka Valley are presented and the fluvial sediments and terrace ...

The impacts of biological invasions
ABSTRACT The Anthropocene is characterised by a continuous human‐mediated reshuffling of the distributions of species globally. Both intentional and unintentional introductions have resulted in numerous species being translocated beyond their native ranges, often leading to their establishment and subsequent spread – a process referred to as biological

River Terraces in Chichibu Basin
Chichibu Basin is situated at the north-eastern part of Kanto-Mts. In this basin river terraces are distributed along the River Ara and River Akahira. We have researched the terrace deposits, especially size and angularity, sorting of terrace gavels, altitude and thickness of gravel beds, from which we have studied on the environment of deposition and ...

The surface features and soil pattern of the Hamilton basin [PDF]
The Holocene history of the Hamilton basin and development of the soil pattern are closely related. The basin was partly filled by the large alluvial fan of the Waikato River which partly buried a hilly, ash-covered landscape.

Abstract The sedimentary succession at Whittlesey preserves a unique British late Middle Pleistocene to Holocene record back to a time equivalent to at least marine oxygen isotope stage 8 (ca. 250 ka). This study builds on previously published sedimentology, geochronology and palaeoecology results to establish 20 sedimentary facies associations, with ...
