A Comparison of the Hydrology of the Swiss Alps and the Southern Alps of New Zealand [PDF]
Mountain Research and Development, 2001 Abstract The hydrology of the Alps in Switzerland and New Zealand is compared. Similarities and differences in topographical features, climate and weather characteristics, precipitation, and streamflow are identified. Precipitation and runoff are much higher in the Southern Alps of New Zealand, whereas the proportion and influence of snow to rainfall ...

Seismotectonics of the eastern-southern Alps: a review
, 1989 The more significant geological and geophysical data available for northeastern Italy, between lake Garda and the Italian border with Yugoslavia, and between the Italian border with Austria and the river Po are analyzed and compared. From the geological point of view, a structural model showing sectors with different pre-Quaternary evolution, and a ...

Low-temperature thermochronology and thermokinematic modeling of deformation, exhumation, and development of topography in the central Southern Alps, New Zealand [PDF]
, 2009 Apatite and zircon (U-Th)/He and fission track ages were obtained from ridge transects across the central Southern Alps, New Zealand. Interpretation of local profiles is difficult because relationships between ages and topography or local faults are ...
