Introducing our new mini-series by GM Blog co-editor Wioleta Por?bna: Great Names in Geomorphology A-Z! Our readers will choose the next name in alphabetical order - leave your suggestions in the comments!
A crucial indicator of hydrodynamic conditions, sediment transport systems, and geomorphic evolution is riverbed sediment. Hydraulic engineering, channel upkeep, and ecological management all depend on accurate sediment classification. Because of their intricate geomorphology and dynamic hydrodynamic forces, riverine systems show more spatial heterogeneity than comparatively stable marine habitat…
Current theories of saturation-excess and infiltration-excess runoff fail to comprehensively and accurately elucidate the intricate runoff generation process in the Loess Plateau. It is imperative to examine the impact of preferred flow and plug flow on river runoff dynamics. This study elucidated the structural composition of runoff components by examining the literature on runoff formation mech…

Season 2 of FieldSound, the official UW College of the Environment podcast, launches today with this episode! Be sure to like, share and subscribe to catch a new episode each Tuesday.
In this episode, Associate Professor of Earth and Space Sciences Alison Duvall shares about tectonic geomorphology, her work with the Cascadia CoPes Hub to increase knowledge about natural hazards and empower commun…
The Geomorphho90m dataset » Click here for the visualization « Topographical relief comprises the vertical and horizontal variations of the Earth’s terrain and drives processes in geomorphology, biogeography, climatology, hydrology and ecology. Its characterisation and assessment, through geomorphometry and feature extraction, is fundamental to numerous environmental modelling and simulation anal…
What: We will be working on reconstructing past environmental and geomorphic conditions in Glacier National Park through collection and analysis of lake sediment cores. There is broad interest in the […] The post GEOMORPHOLOGIC AND PALEOENVIRONMENTAL CHANGE IN GLACIER NATIONAL PARK, MONTANA appeared first on Keck Geology Consortium .
