Site U1325 (Prospectus Site CAS-02C) is located near the southwestern end of the marginperpendicular transect established during Expedition 311 and is within a major slope basin that developed eastward of the deformation front behind a steep ridge of accreted sediments. Bathymetry data show that the seafloor in the western part of this slope basin is relatively flat with water depths around 220...

An analytic solution to the mild slope wave equation is derived for long waves propagating over a circular, bowl-shaped pit located in an otherwise constant depth region. The analytic solution is shown to reduce to a previously derived analytic solution for the case of a bowl-shaped enclosed basin and to agree well with a numerical solution of the hyperbolic mild-slope equations. The effects of...

Javoří hory Mountains is a part of Intra Sudetic Basin that belongs to the Permian-Carboniferous section of the Bohemian Massif, whose geological evolution was strongly influenced by volcanic activity. In the Pleistocene epoch cryogenic processes modeled the mountains significantly (frost cliffs, gelifluction streams), which resulted, in connection to the slope orientations, in substantial moun...

introduction morphological segmentation of land surface is commonly used for land surface allocation in management and environmental sciences. the first step in assigning a piece of land to a specific application is to divide it into homogeneous morphological segments. traditional field-based geomorphological mapping can be time consuming, costly, and challenging when large areas, particularly ...

since direct experimental evidence is not available, this must be verified through a modeling approach, providedadequate data be available. many statistical methods are used to study the relation between independent anddependent variables.this research was carried out at the western part of jazmurian basin tlocated in the southeast ofiran. in this paperused ten physical characteristics such as ...

As the convenient outlet to Bo Sea and major region of economic development in Yellow River Basin, Shandong Province China has undergone large changes land use/land cover (LULC) past two decades with rapid urbanization population growth. The analysis LULC change patterns its driving factors section Basin can provide a scientific basis for rational planning ecological protection resources Basin....

To improve our understanding of Rayleigh wave generation and propagation in oceans, the effects of the presence of an island on the Rayleigh wave features are simulated. The analysis of results reveals Rayleigh wave generation in ocean near the island. In the water column, a decrease of amplitude in the vertical component and an increase of amplitude in the radial component of Rayleigh wave wit...

An analysis of channel head locations provides insight into controls on drainage density, the response of landscapes to climatic change, and the delineation of source areas for channel network simulations. Channel heads and colluvial deposits were mapped in a roughly 2 km 2 area near San Francisco, California, and, although channel heads are located within colluvial deposits in hollows, many su...

Surface absorption and fluorescence measurements of Dissolved Organic Matter (DOM) were conducted along with hydrographic parameters in the Amerasian and Makarov Basins. Parallel factor analysis of DOM fluorescence identified four humic-like and one protein-like component in all 107 surface samples. Based on strong negative trends observed between the spectral slope in the 275–295 nm range and ...
