The lower Calore and middle Volturno valleys preserve stratigraphical morphological evidence tephrostratigraphic markers particularly suitable for reconstructing the long-term geomorphological evolution of central-southern Apennines. Aim our study is to identify main steps Quaternary landscape these valley systems improve knowledge about relationships between fluvial processes tectonics, volcan...

A well-preserved Cambrian section in the Zanskar Valley of northern India has previously been interpreted to record the transition from a passive to an active tectonic margin related to Cambrian–Ordovician orogenesis. This interpretation has been used to support the tectonostratigraphic interpretation of other successions across the Tethyan Himalaya. Our detailed paleoenvironmental analysis sig...

Coastal barrier systems have been widely used to understand the responses of coastal margins to fluctuating Pleistocene sea levels. What has become apparent, particularly with the development of robust chronological frameworks, is that gaps in terrestrial barrier sedimentary records are not uncommon and that they most likely reflect phases of barrier construction on the now submerged continenta...

the transfer and sedimentation in storage dams reduce the volume and damage the life of water reservoirs. due to the importance of water, its storage, and the cost time of constructing reservoirs, especially the scarcity of construncting sites for them, a lot of attentions should be given to the sedimentation of dam reservoirs. it requires the estimate of thew sedimentation and its management. ...

Construction of managed aquifer recharge structures (MARS) to store floodwater is a common strategy for storing depleted groundwater resources in arid and semi-arid regions, as part integrated water management (IWRM). MARS divert surface groundwater, but this can affect downstream fluvial processes. The impact on processes was investigated study by combining remote sensing techniques with hydro...

Abstract Extensive, high-resolution seismic data were correlated with borehole, land use, and geological to calculate the mass of genetically different sediment deposits in Middle Harbour estuary Sydney, Australia. is a drowned-river valley located adjacent larger Sydney estuary. The follows well-defined sedimentation model featuring small fluvial bedload delta upper reaches embayments, deep, c...

Introduction: In the search for life on Mars, investigating fluvial deposits will be a high priority for future landers. Although there is abundant evidence that fluvial processes worked with great intensity in the past (e.g., outflow channels, valley networks, and modified impact craters), aeolian processes dominate under the current environmental conditions. In fact there is evidence that ext...

Fluvial strata dominated internally by sedimentary structures of interpreted upper flow regime origin are moderately common in the rock record, yet their abundance is not appreciated and many examples may go unnoticed. A spectrum of sedimentary structures is recognised, all of which occur over a wide range of scale: 1. cross-bedding with humpback, sigmoidal and ultimately low-angle cross-sectio...

The relative rates of erosion by rivers and glaciers, and the topographic effects of these two different styles of erosion, remain outstanding problems in geomorphology. We use a quantitative description of local fluvial landscapes to estimate how glaciated landscapes might look now had glaciers not developed. This indicates the landscape modification attributable to glacial erosion. We present...
