Evaluating the influence of lake morphology, trophic status and diagenesis on geochemical profiles in lake sediments [PDF]
, 2010 Recent geochemical studies provide evidence that changes in vertical distributions of nutrients in lake sediments are driven by anthropogenic activities, based primarily on trends of increasing concentrations in upper sediment layers.

Sampling Strategies to Improve Passive Optical Remote Sensing of River Bathymetry
Remote Sensing, 2018 Passive optical remote sensing of river bathymetry involves establishing a relation between depth and reflectance that can be applied throughout an image to produce a depth map. Building upon the Optimal Band Ratio Analysis (OBRA) framework, we introduce

Seismic characteristics of sediment drifts: An example from the Agulhas Plateau, southwest Indian Ocean [PDF]
, 2001 Sediment drifts provide information on the palaeoceanographic development of a region. Additionally, they may represent hydrocarbon reservoirs. Because of this, sediment drift investigation has increased over the last few years. Nevertheless, a number of

GlobSed: Updated Total Sediment Thickness in the World's Oceans
Geochemistry Geophysics Geosystems, 2019 We present GlobSed, a new global 5‐arc‐minute total sediment thickness grid for the world's oceans and marginal seas. GlobSed covers a larger area than previously published global grids and incorporates updates for the NE Atlantic, Arctic, Southern Ocean,

Analytical model for flux saturation in sediment transport
, 2014 The transport of sediment by a fluid along the surface is responsible for dune formation, dust entrainment and for a rich diversity of patterns on the bottom of oceans, rivers, and planetary surfaces.

IEEE Transactions on Visualization and Computer Graphics, 2013 We introduce Visual Sedimentation, a novel design metaphor for visualizing data streams directly inspired by the physical process of sedimentation. Visualizing data streams (e. g., Tweets, RSS, Emails) is challenging as incoming data arrive at unpredictable rates and have to remain readable.

Investigating uncertainty and parameter sensitivity in bedform analysis by using a Monte Carlo approach [PDF]
Earth Surface DynamicsPrecise and reliable information about bedforms regarding geometry and dynamics is relevant for many applications – such as ensuring safe conditions for navigation along the waterways, parameterizing the roughness of the riverbed in numerical models, or ...
