Effects of Surface Characteristics on the Existence of Isolated Permafrost in Northeastern Mongolia

open access: yesPermafrost and Periglacial Processes, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Isolated patches of permafrost, where ground thermal changes are affected by ecosystem factors such as vegetation cover rather than climate, may be vulnerable to environmental disturbances in semiarid regions. However, the impacts of ecosystem factors remain underevaluated in Mongolia.

Potential distribution and susceptibility of Coffea arabica L. to climate change impacts

open access: yesPLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.
Ecological niche models (ENMs) are vital for understanding the impact of historical factors on ecosystems and predicting future climate change scenarios. These models help assess how environmental shifts affect agricultural species like coffee, which supports millions of people globally.

Precise levelling data processing near terraced landforms

open access: yesGeodesy and Cartography, 2014
Precise levelling results are affected by the Earth’s gravity field, especially in areas of abrupt changes of landscape, such as terraced landforms. To eliminate the effect of the gravity field gradient, corrections need to be used in precise levelling ...

Associating Local‐Scale Physical Habitat Assemblages With Reach‐Scale Stream Hydrogeomorphological Types in Mountain Headwater Catchments

open access: yesRiver Research and Applications, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Building an understanding of river ecosystems often involves integrating information from different locations, spatial scales and points in time. Geomorphologists and ecologists have long considered ways to explore river ecosystems at different, hierarchical, spatial scales so that features observed locally can be linked to the character of ...

Horizontal lines of memory: Terraced heritage in Sierra de Cabrera-Bédar. Approach and intervention strategies in rural abandoned landscapes

open access: yesDisegnare con, 2019
The terrace, used by different cultures and at different points in history, is the tool that has allowed the cultivation and inhabitation of territories dominated by a steep slope, until then only useful for collecting wild fruit and/or firewood, grazing

Sediment Connectivity in Human-Impacted vs. Natural Conditions: A Case Study in a Landslide-Affected Catchment

open access: yesGeosciences
This research aims to characterize sediment dynamics in the Rupinaro catchment, a uniquely terraced and human-shaped basin in Italy’s Liguria region, employing geomorphometric methods to unravel sediment connectivity in a landscape vulnerable to shallow ...

Charles Darwin y las glaciaciones más antiguas de Patagonia: los bloques erráticos del alto valle del Río Santa Cruz [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
Although the depositational environment assigned by Darwin to the large erratic blocks and gravels in the Río Santa Cruz valley has been reinterpreted, his geomorphological and stratigraphic observations are still in force.

Traditional landscape and rural development: comparative study in three terraced areas in northern, central and southern Italy to evaluate the efficacy of GAEC standard 4.4 of cross compliance

open access: yes, 2011
The recent National Strategic Plan 2007-2013 has introduced landscape as a strategic objective of the rural sector. This represents a minor revolution in the way of visualizing the role of the landscape, together with that of agriculture and the rural ...
