Evolution and internal architecture of an active mixed sand-gravel barrier spit (Somme Bay, Northern France)

, 2021
Virtual meetingInternational audienceInterest on coastal barriers is closely related to the strong anthropogenic pressure on coastal environments. Nevertheless, morphodynamic evolution of coastal barriers and the way it is recorded in the internal ...

shorelines of the Holocene Megalake Chad (Africa, Sahara) investigated with very high resolution satellite imagery (Pléiades) : example of the Goz Kerki paleo-spit

Revue Française de Photogrammétrie et de Télédétection, 2014
Megalake Chad (350,000 km2), the largest paleo-lake of the Sahara-Sahel area, is one of the most emblematic marker of the hydroclimatic changes that occurred during the African Humid Period (AHP; ca. 11,500 — 5,000 years BP) in subtropical Africa.

Cuttings, Combings, Fettlings and Flock: Gender and Australian Wool ‘Waste’, 1900–1950

Gender &History, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT As Australia's wool industry produced vast amounts of fine fleece from the nineteenth century, the wool processing and clothes manufacturing industries generated waste – products like cuttings, combings, fettlings and flock. Salvaged and then sold to waste merchants, these and other materials had a second life.

Hindcasting sand spit morphodynamics after groyne construction in Ghana

, 2017
Groynes were constructed west of the Volta river mouth sand spit in Ghana to mitigate the local average beach retreat of 6 m/year. Even though severe swell events occurred during the construction of the first couple of groynes, the sand spit retreat of ...

Comparative Analysis of the Unmanned Aerial Vehicles and Terrestrial Laser Scanning Application for Coastal Zone Monitoring

Russian Journal of Earth Sciences, 2023
The shallow sandy shores of the tideless sea are regularly affected by storm activity. Foredune ridge is a natural and anthropogenic object, a natural protective barrier that protects ecosystems and populated areas from the effects of dangerous ...

Artificial Intelligence and Digital Impressions: The Positives and the Pitfalls

Australian Dental Journal, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Digital impressions are now central to contemporary dental workflows, driven by advances in CAD/CAM manufacturing and intraoral scanning technologies. In parallel, rapid progress in artificial intelligence (AI)—particularly deep learning—has led to its widespread integration into digital impression systems.

Cross analysis of morphological evolution and internal architecture of an active mixed sand-gravel barrier spit (Somme Bay, Northern France)

, 2020
International audienceMorphodynamic evolution of coastal barriers and the way it is recorded in the internal structure are still revealing many uncertainties. Coastal spits have a high potential of preservation due to their fast elongation under littoral
