Geomorphological maps provide information on the relief, genesis and shape of earth's surface are widely used in sustainable spatial developments. The quality geomorphological is however rarely assessed or reported, which limits their applicability. Moreover, older often do not meet current requirements require updating. This updating time-consuming because its qualitative nature difficult to r...

Glacier-permafrost interactions are investigated to understand glacial-hydrological influence along a partly glacierised valley on the NE flank of Snøhetta massif, Dovrefjell, southern Norway. Of particular interest is how processes controlled by hydrological connection between landforms. Field mapping identified an ice-marginal landsystem comprising polythermal glacier, proglacial lake, ice-co...

This paper presents a geomorphological map of the seafloor north east Maltese Islands (Central Mediterranean) at scale 1:50,000. The was compiled following integration, analysis and interpretation several high-resolution bathymetry datasets. Several structural features, coastal marine landforms anthropogenic features have been mapped. Most mapped submerged – including fluvial, gravity-induced k...

Introduction: During the Viking era, Mars' recent climatic history was held to be cold and dry with little evidence for long-lived liquid water near the surface; signs of a past wetter, warmer climate were confined to ancient Noachian or Hesperian-aged terrains. However, data from recent Mars missions have revealed contemporary near-surface water-ice to be abundant at high latitudes [1, 2], and...

Climate change and tectonic uplift are the dominant forcing mechanisms responsible for formation of long narrow terraced landforms in a variety geomorphic settings; marine terraces largely used to reconstruct Quaternary glacial interglacial climates. Along Mediterranean coast, considerable number popular scientific articles have acknowledged range form low-relief surfaces resulting from combine...

Large fans and terraces are frequent in the Khumbu Himal within the high Himalayan valleys south of Mt. Everest. These features are composed of massive matrixand clast-supported diamicts that were formed from both hyperconcentrated flows and coarse-grained debris flows. Cosmogenic radionuclide (CRN) exposure ages for boulders on fans and terraces indicate that periods of fan and terrace formati...
