A Scoping Review of Landform Classification Using Geospatial Methods

open access: yesGeomatics, 2023
Landform classification is crucial for a host of applications that include geomorphological, soil mapping, radiative and gravity-controlled processes. Due to the complexity and rapid developments in the field of landform delineation, this study provides ...

Climate During the Last Glacial Maximum in the Southern Sangre de Cristo Mountains, Colorado, U.S.A.

open access: yesQuaternary
Reconstruction of seven paleoglaciers in the southern Sangre de Cristo Mountains of Colorado formed the basis of temperature-index modeling to estimate the magnitude of temperature change during the Last Glacial Maximum (LGM).

Decision trees for digital soil mapping on subtropical basaltic steeplands Árvores de decisão para o mapeamento digital de solos em encostas basálticas subtropicais

open access: yesScientia Agricola, 2011
When soil surveys are not available for land use planning activities, digital soil mapping techniques can be of assistance. Soil surveyors can process spatial information faster, to assist in the execution of traditional soil survey or predict the ...

An Automated Processing Algorithm for Flat Areas Resulting from DEM Filling and Interpolation

open access: yesISPRS International Journal of Geo-Information, 2017
Correction of digital elevation models (DEMs) for flat areas is a critical process for hydrological analyses and modeling, such as the determination of flow directions and accumulations, and the delineation of drainage networks and sub-basins.

An Evaluation of Landmark-Based Methods to Explore Tooth Score Morphology: A Case Study on Felids and Hyenids

open access: yesApplied Sciences, 2023
Taphonomic studies aim to identify the modifying agents that intervene in bone assemblages found at archaeopaleontological sites. Carnivores may modify, accumulate, or scavenge skeletal parts inflicting tooth marks, including scores, on the cortical ...

Longitudinal quasi-static stability predicts changes in dog gait on rough terrain [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Legged animals utilize gait selection to move effectively and must recover from environmental perturbations. We show that on rough terrain, domestic dogs, Canis lupus familiaris, spend more time in longitudinal quasi-statically stable patterns of ...
