Scripting cartographic technique is a new method of geospatial data visualization - especially with thematic mapping such as geomorphological models. The purpose this study was to explore the use Generic Mapping Tools (GMT) and R for topographic Serbia using free open datasets (DEM, SRTM/ GEBCO, OpenStreetMap). Current trend in education research distance-based online-based suggests that applic...

Drainage basin-scale morphometric analysis and morphological evidence of tectonics represent helpful tools to evaluate investigate morphoneotectonic processes in tectonically active regions. In this perspective, we applied an integrated the Abruzzo Periadriatic Area, between Tronto Sinello rivers (Central Italy). It involved analysis, structural geomorphological field mapping, detailed fluvial ...

The denudation budget of the Alps is quantified for the main period of lateral extrusion between 22 and 12 Ma. The relative importance of tectonic denudation increases from W to E from ,70% in the Lepontine window in the Swiss Alps to ,80% in the Tauern window and to more than 95% in the Rechnitz window. The driving mechanism of tectonic denudation was eastward extrusion due to an unconstrained...

To understand the effects of geomorphology and environment on the C character of soil organic carbon (SOC) in a hilly karst area, 26 soil samples were collected in 2008 in Nanchuan, Chongqing, SW China. The results showed that the δC-SOC values were between -18.66‰~-27.41‰, with the mean value of -23.3‰. The data firmly indicated that the modern soil organic carbon was the mixture of C3 and C4 ...

India has made tremendous progress in the aerospace technology in the last two decades. We are one, among the worlds best in satellite and the remote sensing technology. We are also one of the developing countries facing the natural disasters and trying level best to mitigate their ill effects. At the best we can minimize their effect. To achieve this, we need to have a comprehensive management...

Quantitative geomorphic methods developed within the past few years provide means of measuring size and form properties of drainage basins. Two general classes of de scriptive numbers are (1) linear scale measurements, whereby geometrically analogous units of topography can be compared as to size; and (2) dimensionless numbers, usually angles or ratios of length measures, whereby the shapes of ...
