Middle and Late Pleistocene environmental history of the Marsworth area, south-central England [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
To elucidate the Middle and Late Pleistocene environmental history of south-central England, we report the stratigraphy, sedimentology, palaeoecology and geochronology of some deposits near the foot of the Chiltern Hills scarp at Marsworth ...

Study of undisturbed loess stress-strain experiments based on CT [PDF]

open access: yesProceedings of the 5th International Conference on Advanced Design and Manufacturing Engineering, 2015
Test method for observation of geotechnical material in structural damage has become one of the hot field of mechanics, which is the basis to establish the structural model. The authors use real time CT test of triaxial stress in undisturbed loess during triaxial shear tests - strain were studied. The paper analyzes the Q2 a nd Q3 loess stress - strain

Flood Risk Management Using Representative Hillslopes: Insights From a Historical Flood in Southwest Germany

open access: yesHydrological Processes, Volume 40, Issue 5, May 2026.
A coupled hydrologic and hydraulic modelling framework relying on representative hillslope models and scaled using hydraulic routing schemes is proposed to simulate Hortonian overland flow at intermediate scales. Using a reconstructed historic summer storm in southwest Germany (1994), we show how hillslope scale nature‐based flood prevention measures ...

Study on the Soil-Water Characteristic Curve and Hydraulic Conductivity Prediction of Unsaturated Undisturbed and Compacted Loess

open access: yesApplied Sciences
In the loess region, the hydraulic properties of the loess, used as either surrounding rock, backfilling or geoplomer material, are significant for engineering construction and agriculture development projects.

An Aeolian Depositional Sequence Shaped by Near‐Surface Water at the Base of the Layered Sulfate Unit, Gale Crater, Mars

open access: yesJournal of Geophysical Research: Planets, Volume 131, Issue 5, May 2026.
Abstract The basal strata of the orbitally defined Layered Sulfate unit (LSu) in Gale crater, Mars, marks the end of a major mineralogical transition from clay‐to sulfate‐bearing stratigraphy. This has previously been attributed to a period of significant aridification of Gale's climate. Here, we present ground‐based observations by the Curiosity rover

The influence of changes in water content on the electrical resistivity of a natural unsaturated loess [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Non-destructive methods of measuring water content in soils have been extensively developed in the last decades, especially in soil science. Among these methods, the measurements based on the electrical resistivity are simple and reliable thanks to the ...

Dynamic liquefaction of shear zones in intact loess during simulated earthquake loading [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
The 2010-2011 Canterbury earthquake sequence in New Zealand exposed loess-mantled slopes in the area to very high levels of seismic excitation (locally measured as >2 g).

Continuous Stem Water Potential Measurements With Microtensiometry Reveal Species Identity and Soil Matric Potential Control of Stem Water Potential in Temperate Forests

open access: yesEcohydrology, Volume 19, Issue 3, April/May 2026.
ABSTRACT Water potential gradients govern water fluxes, and plants respond with species‐specific hydraulic traits that influence ecosystem function. While understanding these traits is key to predicting vegetation responses to climate change, traditional methods like the pressure chamber limit temporal resolution and continuity.
