Soil carbon and nitrogen erosion in forested catchments: Implications for erosion-induced terrestrial carbon sequestration [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Lateral movement of organic matter (OM) due to erosion is now considered an important flux term in terrestrial carbon (C) and nitrogen (N) budgets, yet most published studies on the role of erosion focus on agricultural or grassland ecosystems.

Use of rare earth oxides as tracers to identify sediment source areas for agricultural hillslopes [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
Understanding sediment sources is essential to enable more effective targeting of in-field mitigation approaches to reduce diffuse pollution from agricultural land.

2DV modelling of sediment transport processes over full-scale ripples in regular asymmetric oscillatory flow [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
Wave-induced, steep vortex ripples are ubiquitous features in shallow coastal seas and it is therefore important to fully understand and model the sediment transport processes that occur over them.

Dealing with sediment transport in flood risk management

open access: yesActa Geophysica, 2019
Flooding events are rising across European watercourses because of changing climatic conditions and anthropogenic pressure. To deal with these events, the European Floods Directive requires the development of flood risk management plans regularly updated

Water induced sediment levitation enhances downslope transport on Mars [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
On Mars, locally warm surface temperatures (~293 K) occur, leading to the possibility of (transient) liquid water on the surface. However, water exposed to the martian atmosphere will boil, and the sediment transport capacity of such unstable water is ...

Impacts of tidal flat reclamation on suspended sediment dynamics in the tidal-dominated Wenzhou Coast, China

open access: yesFrontiers in Marine Science, 2023
Reclamation of tidal flats is one of the engineering measures of expanding land area and developing the economy in coastal areas; however, this process disturbs the natural processes of the tidal flat system.

Mass wasting triggered by seasonal CO2 sublimation under Martian atmospheric conditions: Laboratory experiments [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Sublimation is a recognized process by which planetary landscapes can be modified. However, interpretation of whether sublimation is involved in downslope movements on Mars and other bodies is restricted by a lack of empirical data to constrain this ...

Reduced sediment transport in the Yellow River due to anthropogenic changes

open access: yes, 2016
The erosion, transport and redeposition of sediments shape the Earth's surface, and affect the structure and function of ecosystems and society(1,2). The Yellow River was once the world's largest carrier of fluvial sediment, but its sediment load has ...

Comparing Active Learning for Satellite Imagery: Contrastive Learning, Diversity, Confidence Sampling, and Cold Start Strategies

open access: yesIEEE Journal of Selected Topics in Applied Earth Observations and Remote Sensing
In this article, we investigated and compared common active learning strategies for classification and semantic segmentation tasks using satellite imagery.

Analytical model for flux saturation in sediment transport

open access: yes, 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.
