Near-surface shear wave reflection surveys in the Fraser River delta, B.C., Canada
Shallow shear wave reflection surveys using high frequency vibroseis techniques provides information about the Tertiary bedrock surface and Pleistocene sediments on the Fraser River delta, in B.C., Canada. Besides the clear advantage of shear wave profiling in this shallow gas environment, the added resolution potential and ability to measure the shear wave velocity field enhances the fusion of...
متن کاملFactors influencing farmland habitat use by shorebirds wintering in the Fraser River Delta, Canada
Like many other coastal regions of the world, open-soil agricultural lands in the Fraser River Delta provide roosting and feeding habitat for non-breeding shorebirds that supplements intertidal habitat. Focusing on dunlin (Calidris alpina pacifica), black-bellied plover (Pluvialis squatorola), killdeer (Charadrius vociferus), and their avian predators (raptors), diurnal and nocturnal high tide ...
متن کاملEcological and Toxicological Conditions in the Delta Volga River
The decrease in the level of industrial production and the significant reduction of highly toxic substances used in the agriculture of the Volga region in the last decade did not maintain the expected decrease of pollution level in the Volga water. Concentration of many polluting substances in water continues to remain high. Among the numerous polluting substances in the Volga River two groups ...
متن کاملModeling river delta formation.
A model to simulate the time evolution of river delta formation process is presented. It is based on the continuity equation for water and sediment flow and a phenomenological sedimentation/erosion law. Different delta types are reproduced by using different parameters and erosion rules. The structures of the calculated patterns are analyzed in space and time and compared with real data pattern...
