Scientists have long assumed that the physical structure and condition of stream and river channels have pervasive effects on biological communities and processes, but specific tests are few. To investigate the influence of the stream-reach geomorphic state on in-stream habitat and aquatic macroinvertebrate communities, we compared measures of habitat conditions and macroinvertebrate community ...

Geomorphic parameters, which reflect the migration of drainage divide responses, are widely used to assess tectonic activity. There have been several large earthquakes in history Hetao Basin, within Sertengshan Piedmont Fault is important. This study highlights certain references for regional seismic risk assessment. Few studies conducted on area from perspective geomorphic parameters. In this ...

Significant advances have been made towards understanding the dynamics of geomorphic systems through the development of new concepts. In the last two decades, these developments were partly guided by the change in the scale of geomorphic analysis from local (landform) to regional (landscape) scale and partly due to the emergence of new scientific tools and quantitative models. The process-based...

soil scientists have developed different mathematical equations and indices to be able to quantify soil development and to organize soil data. the main objective of the present research was the comparison of different soil development indices (including forms and ratios of iron, magnetic susceptibility, color indices, and modified harden index) related to different soils located on kerman-baft ...
