A spatial perspective on the New York drumlin field

A spatial perspective on the New York drumlin field
This study spatially evaluates the applicability of a deformation approach to drumlin genesis for the New York drumlin field. It also assesses whether the Onondaga Escarpment, Appalachian Plateau, and Glacial Lake Iroquois influenced the spatial

House and field in the Karakorams : the interaction of environment and culture

House and field in the Karakorams : the interaction of environment and culture
One of the two cultures in this mountainous region had its origin in the plains centuries ago, but continues to use house and field designs learned in their original environment. - (DWG)

Two types of longitudinal dune fields and possible mechanisms for their development

Two types of longitudinal dune fields and possible mechanisms for their development
Longitudinal dune fields characteried by nearly uniform interdune spacing are distinguished from longitudinal dune fields characterized by fairly variable interdune spacing and high frequencies of dune coalescence. The empirical and theoretical
timescale is estimated for the formation of desert longitudinal dune fields.

Field monitoring of surface and subsurface runoff on a slope in a loamy region

Field monitoring of surface and subsurface runoff on a slope in a loamy region
. In order to evaluate the hydrological processes and the soil erosion mechanisms in short time interval, a field study was started on surface and subsurface waterflow processes on a sloping field (16 %) under conventional tillage. Describes briefly
the experimental set-up and the methodology used for monitoring the surface and subsurface runoff processes on an experimental field in the Belgian loamy region. - (Authors).

Dust deposition near an eroding source field

Dust deposition near an eroding source field
This study was undertaken to quantify dust deposition within 200 m of a source field during wind erosion events. Erosion was measured with BSNE samplers on a small field of Amarillo fine sandy loam at field at Big Spring, TX. The line source model

Morphology of lava tumuli from Mendoza (Argentina), Patagonia (Argentina), and Al-Haruj (Libya)

In this paper, the AA. present a descriptive summary of tumuli from 3 geographically distinct volcanic fields dominated by pahoehoe lava fields. These 3 studied fields are geographically distinct, however the composition of the magma
and the volcanic settings as volcanic cone fields associated with extensive lava fields are common features among these fields. The young age and the semi-arid to arid climate provided excellent exposures to study lava surface features of the studied sites

Fieldwork unbound : spaces of association in postconflict Vietnam

This article traces the ways in which the field emerges and becomes emplaced among three groups of people by presenting an inclusive reading of fieldwork in postconflict Vietnam. It employs a heuristic device called spaces of association
to illustrate the different yet interrelated socio-spatial fields that surface when conducting fieldwork in an environment known for violence. In shedding light on the field's ability to extend beyond the territorially defined “field site,” this article speaks
to debates surrounding the socio-spatial production of multiple and overlapping fields, describes the audiences engaged with and implicated in research, and contributes to understandings of ethical research engagement with postconflict field sites.

On the correspondence between morphological and hydrodynamical patterns of groyne fields

On the correspondence between morphological and hydrodynamical patterns of groyne fields
This paper examines a variety of recirculation flow patterns that develop in the groyne fields on rivers. Flume experiments at Delft University of Technology and field measurements were performed on the Elbe River in Germany, using innovative
particle tracking and acoustic Doppler velocimetry. The analysis focuses on patterns of velocity, scour and deposition, and corresponding change of riverbed morphology. The results show that velocity patterns in the groyne fields depend mainly on the aspect
ratio between groyne length and length of groyne field. The spatial distribution of fine-sediment deposition between the groynes coincides with the location of gyres.

Paleoclimatic field studies in and along the Qinling Shan (Central China)

Paleoclimatic field studies in and along the Qinling Shan (Central China)
This article gives a survey of the question of Pleistocene glaciations in the area of the Loess Plateau (Central China) and the results of the latest field investigations in the years 1989 and 1993.

How to make a palsa: a field experiment on permafrost formation

How to make a palsa: a field experiment on permafrost formation
This paper presents a natural scale field experiment on palsa formation. In this study only one parameter, which was thought to be critical one in this environment for the formation of permafrost is varied. The factor was snow depth, which
