Les AA. décrivent différents modèles théoriques utilisés pour ajuster la distribution des séquences de jours consécutifs secs en fonction de leur longueur. Le modèle des distributions binomiales négatives translatées (BNT) est jugé le plus
. Application aux séquences de jours secs consécutifs| le modèle ajustant le mieux les séquences est celui basé sur la distribution négative translatée, permettant surtout un bon ajustement des séquences sèches longues. Vérification de la stabilité temporelle
Des différents modèles possibles des séquences climatiques, l'A. propose le schéma de Bernoulli, le schéma de Polya, la modélisation de la longueur des séquences par la loi binomiale négative translatée, les chaînes de Markov d'ordre 1 et 2
The significance of rainstorm variations to shallow translational hillsllope failure
anticyclonic storms. The distribution of rain during individual storms also varies with the synoptic conditions under which the storms are produced. In this paper, a physically based coupled hydrology-stability model is used to assess the significance
of this approach to lichenometry is to translate the size-frequency distribution of lichens into the age frequency of boulders. Three approaches can be adopted using the software supplied: simulation modelling; correcting the distribution; combined approach.

Les AA. présentent une analyse sensitive des modèles de susceptibilité des glissements de terrain superficiels par translation dans les zones de Fanhoes-Trancão et de Lousa-Loures, au nord de Porto. Les résultats obtenus permettent d'expliquer
This paper presents the issues of the close connection between the evolution of gravitational slope deformations and the formation of crevice-type caves. Furthermore, it presents a contemporary view on the regional distribution of crevice-type caves
in this area and outlines the recent progress and future possibilities of the investigation of this phenomenon. Based on the vertical distribution of different morphological zones within the caves and the main modes of their evolution, we can distinguish three
basic types of crevice-type caves: (i) translational/spreading type, (ii) toppling type and (iii) rotational type. - (EN)
Pioneers of modern geography : translations pertaining to German geographers of the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries
Introductory essay, bibliography and translated extracts of published works by and about five notable German geographers : A. Meitzen (1822-1910); E. Hahn (1856-1928); O. Schluter (1872-1959); S. Passarge (1866-1958); and K. Sapper (1866-1945
A nighttime (2.13 am on May 30th 1978) thermal infrared (10.5-12.5 micrometer) HCMM CCT was translated into a maplike lineprint by means of the programme NMAPW and EXIO. Pixel location on the topographical map was effected by stepwise adaptation
of the line print and the map and of the lineprint and the Landsat multispectral colour composite by means of B and L Zoom Transfer Scope. A good correlation was found between the thermal image and the distribution pattern of major geographical units. Forests
