Abstract The period 1965–2000 saw a sustained increase in research and publications on fluvial processes landforms. trend towards generalization and/or mechanistic understanding, rather than site-specific history, continued. Research was multidisciplinary, with important contributions from hydraulic engineers, geologists physical geographers experimental theoretical approaches as well geomorpho...

Low fluvial terraces present azonal spatialization, encompassing several geomorphological compartments and climate zones in Brazil. Their genesis is directly related to river dynamics. When influenced by allogenic forces, such as Holocene pulses, it results channel incision posterior abandonment of the floodplain. Relatively plain landforms at different altimetric levels identified between curr...

Abstract Libya is located on the southern shore of Mediterranean Sea in northern part Africa. Geomorphological landforms known as geomorphosites are those that have been seen or exploited by humans having scientific, cultural/historical, aesthetic, social/economic significance. Various transverse and can be found other parts world. United Nations Educational Scientific Cultural Organization (UN...

High-resolution topographic (HRT) techniques allow the mapping and characterization of geomorphological features with wide-ranging perspectives at multiple scales. We can exploit geomorphometric information in study most extensive common landforms that humans have ever produced: agricultural terraces. only develop an understanding these historical landform through in-depth knowledge their origi...

This paper provides a record and analysis of site in east-midland England, at which organic soil material are found between two Middle Pleistocene tills. is the first discovery its kind area, demonstrates unequivocally that region was glaciated on separate occasions, something has long been inferred articulated, but not actually demonstrated. The landforms, sediments soils studied with respect ...

Future global warming has a number of implications for fluvial geomorphology because of changes in such phenomena as rates of evapotranspiration, precipitation characteristics, plant distributions, plant stomatal closure, sea levels, glacier and permafrost melting, and human responses. Potential changes in rivers are outlined in this review in the context of changes in the intensity of rainfall...

In much of the world, large scale soil maps which would better inform land use decisions are not available. The major impediment to collection of large scale data is the cost of field survey over large areas. One promising approach to increase the efficiency of soil survey is soil-landscape modelling. Soil-landscape models formalise relationships between soil attributes and other environmental ...

introduction this research addresses the automatic extraction of alluvial fans using four methods of segmentation from satellite data. this segmentation method divides images into partitions. it is typically used to recognize objects or other relevant purposes in digital images (fu, 2013:3260). alluvial fans have always been a landform that attracts human because they are suitable areas for liv...

This paper presents a new complete field mapping of glacial landscapes, landforms and sediments in the Faroe Islands, supplemented by observations from bathymetric maps Shelf. In addition, previous investigations Quaternary espe-cially Weichselian glaciation archipelago are reviewed. New cosmogenic nuclide exposure ages indicate that last extensive Islands occurred during Late Weichselian, most...
