Boulder, Colo., USA - In their article for Geosphere, R. Craig Kochel and colleagues discuss the geomorphic impact of the flooding caused Tropical Storm Lee in September 2011 on several large ...

Geomorphic reclamation is a relatively novel approach intended to mimic the topography of nearby undisturbed lands, with a wide variety of terrain that is stable and less susceptible to erosion. A new ...

Outgrowth of the 2007 GeoHab meeting held in Noumea, New Caledonia. Cf. pref. Why map benthic habitats? / Peter T. Harris and Elaine K. Baker -- Habitat mapping and marine management / Elaine K. Baker ...

South of the high mountain axis of the Pyrenees the southern margin, known as the Prepyrenees, forms a distinctive, relatively homogeneous region. This paper provides an overview of the geomorphic ...

Flood discharge and stream scour studies at pipeline mountain stream crossings alone cannot adequately protect a pipeline where other, more-hazardous processes are possible. Studies have shown that ...

This NSF-funded project provides a comprehensive estimate of floodplain organic carbon storage across the conterminous United States to determine the impact of human activities on floodplain carbon ...

A geomorphic reclamation site in the Gas Hills in 2018, left, and in 2023. A team of UW researchers, armed with a three-year, $450,000 National Science Foundation grant, is studying how mine ...

Evaluation of landforms, soils, and deposits formed by active tectonics is providing basic data necessary for long-term earthquake prediction, seismic-hazard evaluation, and probabilistic seismic-risk ...

Geomorphic maps communicate the seascape or structure of the ocean floor. There are a total of 12 geomorphic classes identified on the Allen Coral Atlas. Disclaimer: AAAS and EurekAlert! are not ...

UW graduate student Kurt Fleisher stands on undisturbed land north of Rock Springs that was part of a study showing that new reclamation techniques are more effective in restoring lands disturbed by ...
