South-west Isle of Wight
The south-west coast of the Isle of Wight (see Figure 4.1 for general location) is geomorphologically rich in features of interest.

متن کاملInfluence of Late Quaternary Climatic Changes on Geomorphic and Pedogenic Processes on a Desert Piedmont, Eastern Mojave Desert, California
Radiocarbon dating of late Quaternary deposits and shorelines of Lake Mojave and cation-ratio numerical age dating of stone pavements (Dorn. 1984) on the adjacent Soda Mountains piedmont provide age constraints for alluvial and eolian deposits. These deposits are associated with climatically controlled stands of Lake Mojave during the past 15.000 yr. Six alluvial fan units and three eolian stra...
متن کاملOptimisation of Intermodal Transport Chain of Supermarkets on Isle of Wight, UK
This work investigates an intermodal transportation system for delivering goods from a Regional Distribution Centre to supermarkets on the Isle of Wight (IOW) via the port of Southampton or Portsmouth in the UK.
