Mangrove forests are dynamic ecosystems found along low-lying coastal plains tropical, subtropical, and some warm-temperate coasts, predominantly on tidal flats fringing deltas, estuaries, bays, oceanic atolls. These landforms present varied hydrodynamic geomorphological settings for mangroves to persist could influence the extent of within-site propagule transport subsequent local regeneration...

In this study, we consider a critical challenge in architectural design methodology-methods of form making landform architecture. Based on the authors’ methodology, approaches and methods are specified systematized, depending algorithm form-making process basic principles building composition. The to making, including image-based, generative, functional determined. within framework image-based ...

This thesis presents methods to enrich data modeling and analysis in the geoscience domain with a particular focus on geomorphological applications. First, a short overview of the relevant characteristics of the used remote sensing data and basics of its processing and visualization are provided. Then, two new methods for the visualization of vector-based maps on digital elevation models (DEMs)...

The linkages between the space-time variability of observed clouds, rainfall, large-circulation patterns and topography in northern India and the Himalayas were investigated using remote sensing data. The research purpose was to test the hypothesis that cloudiness patterns are dynamic tracers of rainstorms, and therefore their temporal and spatial evolution can be used as a proxy of the spatial...

Terrestrial close range digital photogrammetric methods were used to obtain three-dimensional data on erosion gullies associated with waste rock dumps at Newmont Australia’s Jundee gold mining operations. Digital stereo pairs of photographs were taken at each site and three-dimensional images produced using the CSIRO software package SIRO3D. Difficulties associated with producing accurate three...

Topics covered: 1. Conceptual framework – agents of pattern formation. 2. Abiotic factors – geology, geomorphology, hydrology, soils. 3. Climatic factors – temperature, precipitation, solar radiation, meteorology. 4. Climate-landform effects on vegetation pattern, ecological flows, disturbance regimes and geomorphological processes. 5. Resource management implications – climate change scenarios...
