Some of the inshore reefs of the Great Barrier Reef are showing impacts consistent with a decline in water quality as a result of increased sediments and nutrients. The Wet Tropics covers approximately 2.2 million hectares and includes 91 percent of the Wet Tropics World Heritage area. The climate and geomorphologic conditions of the region are unique in Australia and generally result in fast f...

The objective of this study is to generate a flood hazard map based on geomorphologic approach employing Shuttle Radar Topographic Mission (SRTM) DEM and satellite image data (ASTER and LANDSAT). Supervised classification of satellite images is implemented to characterize land cover types. Moreover, the Modified Normalized Difference Water Index (MNDWI) is undertaken to identify moist surface o...

river of the most important factors in the cycle of erosion and geomorphologic process and present their studies on the wide are. in this research , the purpose of understanding factors that influence changes geomorphologic middle part of the river bed and atrak river review these changes has been the domain. this area is located between the villages of ghazan ghaye to chat in golestan province...

Shallow earth translational slides and earth flows, affecting colluvial soils derived by the weathering of the clayey bedrock, are a recurrent problem causing damage to buildings and roads in many areas of Apennines. The susceptibility assessment, e.g. slope stability models, requires the preliminary characterization of these superficial covers (lithology, geotechnical and hydraulic parameters)...
