W continental ice sheets melted about 15,000 years ago, rising seas inundated large regions of northern Australia, fl ooding valleys and creating vast, low-lying wetland areas. More recent transitions in some of these regions occurred as gradual siltation and levée formation reduced the movement of salt water to create freshwater swamps that were regularly fi lled by monsoon rains, a process th...

Monitoring the coastline dynamic can provide basis for balance of sediment erosion and deposition. The evaluation coastal stability is beneficial to decision makers rational development ecological conservation resources. present study first collected 61 scenes remote sensing images extracted multi-temporal coastlines from years 1990–2020 in Jiangsu Province, China using an improved waterline me...

Lake Ulansuhai, one of the main water sources for semi-arid areas China, has a local deposit caused by soil erosion during past decades. However, lack monitor stations prevents better estimation levels. Therefore, we try to estimate in Huangtuyaozi (HTYZ) watershed, an ungauged small watershed lake’s eastern using revised universal loss equation (RUSLE) model and multi-source remote sensing dat...

Flooding in a sediment-laden floodplain is affected by riverine beach vegetation and the shape of meandering compound channel. The laws water sediment exchange deposition distribution troughs are very complex. These factors play significant role formation development secondary suspended rivers, adjustment horizontal gradient, even evolution flood control situation. In this study, we used combin...

This paper presents environmental change monitoring in the Taita Hills, Kenya applying SPOT XS satellite imagery, aerial photography and digital camera data. The paper presents the data, methods for atmospheric correction, and results from land cover change detection and soil erosion change detection. The results indicated that gully density has doubled in the test sites during the observation ...

It is difficult to separate effects on fish community assemblages due to anthropogenic stressors from natural factors. We examined small-bodied-fish communities along the northern coast of Cuba near Havana Harbor during the dry (February/March of 2000) and wet (June 2000) seasons. Over 35,000 individual fish were visually counted at 15 sites along the coast in three areas located 0-2.4, 2.4-6.1...
