Die zeitliche Einstufung geologischer Prozesse für ingenieurgeologische Aufgaben im Bergbau und Bauwesen unter besonderer Berücksichtigung des Karstes (Temporal rating of geological processes for Engineering geological tasks in mining
and architecture especially in Karst regions)
Temporal rating of geological processes has great importance for carstification processes in salt and gipsum areas. Two problems are discussed : determination of age by geological methods and prognosis of recent geological processes using

The geological heritages in Xinjiang are characterized by their large quantity, rich variety and high grade. The main types of the geological heritages in Xinjiang are the geologic-geomorphic landscapes and the water landscapes. The spatial
distribution can be divided into 5 geological heritage districts: Altay, Junggar, Tianshan, Tarim and Kunlun-Altun, among which Tianshan and Kunlun-Altun are most important. It is confirmed that the insufficient coordination between protection and exploitation
is the primary cause for the backward situation in the geological heritage protection. To solve the problem, the A. proposes 6 major protection steps.
An outline of the geological structure of the Northeastern Hohes Venn Area and of its Northern foreland
Lower Paleozoic (Cambrian, Ordovician), Devonian, and Carboniferous sedimentary rocks are exposed in the northeastern part of the Hohes Venn area (Northern Eifel) and in its northern forelands. The regionalgeological development represented
by these sediments and their Caledonian and Variscan structural characteristics are obtained from geological profiles across the Eifel's northern boundary zone.
Contributions to the history of geological mapping.
was held in Budapest in August 1982. Thematically, the lectures can be classed into four groups: 1. The main trends of the development of geological maps. 2. The history of the geological mapping of different countries and regions. 3. The birth
The Commission on the History of Geological Sciences (INHIGEO), one of the international commissions of the International Union of Geological Sciences (IUGS), has been working since 1968. The jubilary, 10th international symposium of this commission
and characteristic features of special-purpose applied geological maps. 4. The role and activity of outstanding personalities in the development of geological mapping. (L'Ed.).
This paper reviews the major geological and geomorphological studies done on West Cameroon commonly known as the English speaking Cameroon region since independence (1961).
A spatial overview of the landforms of Namibia and the geological influences on its geomorphology. Some 17 regions are distinguished and described in brief. - (AJC)
Zosuny v Nizkych Beskydach, ich vztah ku geologickej stavbe a morfologii. (Landslides in the Nizke Mts. and their relation to geological structure and morphology)
Block fields, landslides, earth currents, etc. have a very high occurrence in the Nizke Beskydy. Their regional distribution are analysed in relation to the geological structure, particularity to the lithologicofacial character of the strata
The Monte Santa Maria Tiberina ridge consists of a stack of Late Oligocene-Middle miocene siliciclastic turbidite successions belonging to the Tucsan and Umbria domains. In this work a new geological map of the area is presented, based on a review
Geological analysis of the Kisalfold based on satellite-photos
Some modifications of the boundary of the region are made from satellite data, recent geomorphic processes are detected, surface sediments are analyzed, the evolution of drainage pattern is studied and the major lineaments in the area are reveal

This paper contains the results of a geological and structural survey in the area of Agrigento and the Valley of the Temples. The main outcropping formation is characterized by a clayey-sandy pleistocenic sequence in which four calcarenitic bodies
are present. The regional and local geology is dealt with an approximately EW axis. Then attention is turned to the textural characteristics and the causes producing the decay of the calcarenitic facies. - (NF)

The aim of this book is to make a climatic reconstruction of the Late Glacial/early Holocene transition in NW Europe by means of geological evidence and to compare this reconstruction with the simulation results of an atmospheric general circulation

Detailed geological mapping has been carried out in the area of Salento surrounding Copertino village (Lecce). The aim is to clarify the stratigraphy of Oligo-Miocene sediments which crop out widely in the area and were referred to the Pietra

The Karakoram terrane in Northern Pakistan is geologically equivalent to the Qiangtang terrane of central Tibet but unlike Tibet shows extreme topographic relief, high uplift-exhumation and erosion rates and exposes deep crustal metamorphic
and igneous rocks of the lower crust. The Karakoram terrane has been above sea-level since Early to Mid-Cretaceous, the age of the youngest marine sedimentary rocks. Geological and U-Pb geochronological data show that the Karakoram Range was a dynamic active
The aim of this study is to provide basic data on the geological structure of Kuwait, revealed through morphostructural analysis. Analysis of geomorphic data in relation to the geological, structural and tectonic evolution has resulted
