water resources throughout human history have always been an important factor in attracting human settlement. the main purpose of this paper was to investigate what is the role of shadchay river in the location of two prehistoric settlements that are called tepe meymon abad. in this research by field studies and also to investigate the characteristics of the sediments, samples were taken from t...

This study assesses historic overbank alluvial sedimentation along a low-gradient reach of West Fork Black’s Fork in the northern Uinta Mountains, Utah. In this previously glaciated setting, an alluvial floodplain that is approximately 400 m wide by 1500 m long has been modified by the combined effects of valley morphometry and the recent history of clear-cut logging during the late 19th and ea...

1. introduction the earth's crust is composed of various landforms. these forms are constantly changing. in this change, both of internal and external factors have a decisive role. the internal factors led to the formation of the primary structure and external factors that cause erosion, deformation and destruction of these forms. areas that have been affected by these activities confronted by ...

Yalvaç and Ilgın basins surrounding the Sultandağları opened due to orogenic collapse in early Miocene. The NW-SE trending Çakırçal Akşehir Faults, forming boundaries with these basins, caused both opening of uplifting Sultandağları. During Miocene-Pliocene period, alluvial fans fed from developed on basin margins, while lacustrine carbonate clastic depositions occurred basin's interior. Alluvi...

Fan-shaped sedimentary landforms on Mars are important geomorphic markers of past water flow and characterizing the distribution morphology these features can yield insights into planet's climatic evolution. We present a new database 1501 martian fan-shaped that builds upon previous surveys uses Context Camera images. This comprehensive global survey includes both alluvial fans putative deltas,...
