A late Holocene onset of Aboriginal burning in southeastern Australia [PDF]
, 2015 The extent to which Aboriginal Australians used fire to modify their environment has been debated for decades and is generally based on charcoal and pollen records rather than landscape responses to land-use change. Here we investigate the sensitivity of

Impacts of river engineering on river channel behaviour : implications for managing downstream flood risk [PDF]
, 2020 Although knowledge of sediment transport has improved over the last 25 years, our understanding of bedload transfer and sediment delivery is still based on a limited set of observations or on models that make assumptions on hydraulic and sediment ...

Sediment Entrainment and Slump Blocks Limit Permafrost Riverbank Erosion
Geophysical Research Letters, 2023 Climatic warming and permafrost thaw are predicted to increase Arctic riverbank erosion, threatening communities and accelerating sediment, carbon and nutrient cycling between rivers and floodplains.

Sediment Erosion Generated by a Coandă-Effect-Based Polymetallic-Nodule Collector
Journal of Marine Science and Engineering, 2023 To date, hydraulic collection is the most widely considered technology in polymetallic-nodule mining, since there is no direct contact between hydraulic collectors and ocean floor.

Geography, Environment, Sustainability, 2014 Agricultural lands around the globe have been seriously affected by soil erosion and resultant on- and off-site eco-environmental problems. Quantitative assessment of sediment redistribution allows for explicit understanding the effects of natural and ...
