the volume and surface area of the coast is a function of basin water levels. recognizing the factors of coastal geomorphologic changes could have a pivotal role in planning and managing the coast. effective factors in the formation and evolution of geomorphologic factors such as geological, tectonic, paleoclimatic, paleoclimatic and sea level changes have been considered in this study and the ...

We made a detailed geomorphologic map of the Menrva region of Titan, using Cassini RADAR data as our map base. Using similar techniques and approaches that were applied to mapping Magellan radar images of Venus, and earlier, more generalized Titan maps, we were able to define and characterize 10 radar morphologic units, along with inferred dunes and fluvial channels, from the RADAR data. Struct...

[1] We produced a geologic/geomorphologic map of the Chaac-Camaxtli region of Io’s leading anti-Jovian hemisphere using regional resolution (186 m/pixel) Galileo imaging data collected during orbit I27 (February 2000) integrated with lower resolution (1.4 km/ pixel) color data, along with other Galileo imaging and spectral data. This is the first regional map of Io made from Galileo data. Nine ...

a review of damages caused by landslide shows the need for studying effective parameters in landslide occurrence and prediction. this study aims to improve landslide prediction results for tutkabon region in gilan province. to this end, shannon entropy theory was employed for modeling and considering data uncertainty. slope, height, geomorphologic conditions, earth’s curve, closeness to river, ...

abstract a major part of iran includes mountain areas. one of the hazards which threaten these areas is the slope instability. each year the occurrence of this phenomenon causes a lot of damages to the slope lands which are exploited by man. one of the most lot hazardous of these instabilities is landslide. the goal was to investigate the causes of this process and the methods of its stabilizat...

About 80 percent of Iran is arid and semi-arid and about 35 percent of this area is susceptible to desertification hazard. Therefore desertification assessment and identification of the most important criteria for the assessment of risk and a basis for development of management plans is essential. This research was conducted in the semi-arid region of Agh-Band in the Golestan province, Iran wit...

High precision DEM of a tidal-flat is valuable to coastal management as well as pure scientific interest including erosion and sedimentation rate study. Geomorphologic mapping in coastal zone is, however, complicated by the rapid and significant changes on many fluvial forms and poor topographic expression of the landform. Three space-borne SAR systems including ALOS PALSAR, TerrrSAR-X and ERS-...
