This paper reports results from bedload transport investigations with active (radio) and passive (iron, magnetic) tracers in the Lainbach, a step-pool mountain river, in Bavaria, Southern Germany.
Since 1985 long term investigations evaluating the effects of agricultural management practices and environment influence on soils are carried out at 132 agricuotural areas in Bavaria. Aim of the programme is to register changes of soil at various
: shapoe, elevation and orientation. The derivation of these parameters from a digital terrain model and the application to the production of digital climatological maps, with special regard to the new fog map of Bavaria, are presented and discussed. - (L'A.).
Magnitude and frequency of bedload transport was examined in the Lainbach River, Bavaria, using magnetically tagged particles in the summers of 1988 to 1992, during which 18 small to moderate events and one major event occurred. These data present
Coarse material bedload transport was investigated at a measuring site in the Lainbach river, Bavaria. During two measuring periods the iron and magnetic tracer techniques were employed. The results demonstrate that for determining bedload transport

Parts of the study sites in the Steigerwald Mountains (northern Bavaria) had been cultivated and were re-forested at least 60 years ago. Soil erosion has removed the upper materials, exposing deposits to contamination from the surface, which same

Pedological and geophysical field methods in combination with laboratory analyses were used in close proximity to the archaeological excavation site at Mintraching (near Regensburg, Bavaria). Studies about the terrace stratigraphy of the river
The catchment of the River Partnach, a torrent situated in a glacial valley in the Northern Calcareous Alps of Bavaria, Germany, was affected by a high-magnitude flood on 22/23 August 2005. The flood was caused by a long period of intense rainfall
