This paper aims to analyse the geographical development of the fast food stores. The A. selected Tokyo City area as field. He indicated in particular the strong relation between the distribution of the fast food stores and the population
Internal deformation of a fast-moving earthflow, Raukumara Peninsula, New Zealand
This paper presents measurements of internal deformation made over a two-year periode using electrolytic tiltmeters, with a sensitivity of 2-4 min of arc, installed in the fast-moving Wether Run earthflow complex on the Raukumara Peninsula, New
Luminescence variations in fast-growing stalagmites from Uppsala, Sweden
Two fast-growing stalagmites from a cellar vault in Uppsala are analysed for their luminescent properties. The results indicate that variations in luminescence intensity in the stalagmites are annual and that the stalagmites have been growing for 10
Bearing strength of fast ice and Antarctic transport operations during the spring-summer period
Article traduit du russe, extrait de: Trudy sovetskoj antarkticeskoj ekspedicii, Leningrad, 1977, vol.63 (The fast ice of East Antarctica), pp. 104-118.
Fast-flowing outlet glaciers of the Last Glacial Maximum Patagonian Icefield
Glacial geomorphology around the Northern Patagonian Icefield indicates that a number of fast-flowing outlet glaciers drained the icefield during the Last Glacial Maximum. Here, a detailed regional map of glacial landforms around the Northern
Patagonian Icefield, data from satellite images and digital elevation model (DEM), ice thickness calculations, are presented and discussed. The influence of the fast-flowing outlet glaciers on icefield behavior may explain why the configuration
Street networks in relation to landforms : implications for fast-growing cities
This article shows that landforms have significant effects on the city shape and street patterns of the fast-growing Iranian cities of Dezful (a river) and Khorramabad (mountains and valleys), but no clear effects on the cities of Yazd and Nain
An investigation of water and ice chemistry in a fast-retreating glacier in the Dolomites (NE Italy) : the Fradusta glacier
Fradusta glacier (Pale di San Martino massif), the second largest icefield in Italian Dolomites, is evidencing a fast retreat, with a surface area reduction of about 90% in the last 100 years, and a negative variation of glacier front of 115.5 m
A fast, simple and versatile algorithm to fill the depressions of digital elevation models
and to implement, requiring only a few tens of code lines. It is much faster than usual algorithms. Moreover this method is versatile : depressions can be replaced with a surface either strictly horizontal, or slightly sloping. The first option is used
