Glacial reworking of paraglacial rock slope material has been inferred from long-deglaciated terrains to be an important component of glacial sediment transfer. We provide the first description from a contemporary glacial environment of the geomorphological consequences of glacier advance (of the Feegletscher Nord, Switzerland) across a paraglacial rock avalanche deposit. The landform-sediment ...

Present study was carried out to delineate groundwater prospect zones and identification of artificial recharge sites using Indian remote sensing satellite (IRS) 1D PAN geocoded data on 1:12,500 scale and Survey of India (SOI) topographical sheets. The information based on lithology, geomorphology, soil, land-use/ land-cover, structures/lineament, slope, drainage and hydrology were generated an...

In this chapter, we review the historical arc of research on biogeomorphic interactions between fluvial geomorphology and riparian vegetation. We then report on an examination of the past 20 years of published research on this topic. Having classified studies according to the key relationships they have identified, we map those relationships to seek spatial patterns that emerge in terms of eith...

Abstract The objective of this research is to identify groundwater potential zones for Bangladesh. Fourteen influential factors associated with topography, geology and meteorological concerns were applied study. Weights sub-factors within a factor calculated based on pairwise comparisons. delineated through GIS-based weighted overlays maps. According the comparison, consistency ratios allowable...

This article provides a background for scientists interested in a general overview of the geology and geomorphology of Turkmenistan. The basement of Turkmenistan is a complex amalgamation of arc-related terranes developed in the Asiatic and northern Paleotethys oceanic domains during Late Paleozoic to Triassic times. A major part of the country coincides with the Turan Platform, where a thick s...

evaluation of sediment yield in watershed scale is considered so important for implementation of soil conservation, watershed management, environment, dam construction and water resource management. using empirical model is one of the approaches of evaluating sediment yield. this research in kasilian watershed evaluates sediment yield by using geomorphology method and epm model with arc view gi...

Geomorphology deals with analysis of geo features that occur in a spatial array and develop over temporal frame. In modern times investigations geomorphology have progressed the application concrete theories pure techniques applied for modelling future interpolations projections affecting Earth’s natural systems. The scale frame landform alteration by climate-induced processes (flowing water, g...
