The Fudu Estuary Sandbar Lagoon is one of the most representative sandbar-lagoon landforms in China, and has undergone drastic evolution recent years, accompanied by increased coastal engineering activities. process its control factors are studied through remote sensing interpretation sediment transport calculations. During 2010–2021, sandbar quickly extended at an average speed 49.5 m/a, but a...

The behavior of siliciclastic coastal systems is largely controlled by the interplay between accommodation creation and infilling. Factors responsible for altering sediment fluxes to along open-ocean coasts include cross-shore mobilization primarily from tidal currents storms as well changes in alongshore transport rates moderated changing wave conditions, river inputs, artificial shoreline har...

1. Ecogeomorphic feedbacks between mineral sediment deposition and above-ground plant growth are thought to have dominated the evolution of many coastal ecosystems and landforms. However, land-use-related reductions in sediment delivery rates to estuaries world-wide suggest that these above-ground feedbacks may not apply in some of the world’s most vulnerable coastal landscapes. 2. To understan...

lake maharlu basin is located in a synclinal valley of the folded zagros. the frame and rugged structure of the basin is made of three units of mountainous geomorphologic, smooth levels and tectonic hole and evolved during several geological periods under the effect of interactive relations of tectonic, climatology and hydro geomorphologic processes. in this study, the researchers applied histo...

Introduction. The western and northwestern flanks of the Tharsis Montes volcanoes were covered by tropical mountain glaciers 125–220 million years ago [1], as evidenced by the morphology, stratigraphic relationships, and spatial distribution of landforms in the fanshaped deposits (FSDs) on each volcano [2-8] and by climate and glacial flow models that predict snow accumulation and ice flow in t...

This study focuses on linear anthropogenic landforms of decametric width on cultivated hillslopes and their relations to soil thickness variability. The 16 ha study area shows a rolling topography supported by Cretaceous chalk of the SW Parisian Basin, France. Two types of landforms were identified: lynchets, similar to those described as soil terraces occurring on downslope field parts in othe...

The Upper Jurassic Evaporite Formation accumulated up to 200 m of interbedded gypsum-carbonates layers across the coastal cliffed region Safi (Morocco) have been affected by karstification process, resulting in karst collapse and subsidence structures associated with faulting, fracturing different types instabilities, which are among main causes natural hazard risk, impacting socio-economic env...
