A detailed analysis of weathering-pit distribution on Georgia's Stone Mountain granite dome reveals a complex relationships between pit size and density, compared with slope aspect and angle. The AA. conclude that insolation weathering may be a more

Time patterns of karst denudation in northwest Georgia (U.S.A.) were investigated at three spring sites for 12 months and at five stream sites for 10 years. Rainfall was evenly distributed and showed no significant seasonality. At the springs
This paper combines a study of glacier fluctuations and palaeoecological changes to determine the environmental history of South Georgia since the last glacial maximum. The most extensive Holocene advance of South Georgia glaciers culminated just

This research investigates how human disturbance has affected foredune vegetation of the Georgia Sea Islands (GSI) in the United States. Both two-factor analysis of variance, ANOVA, and nonmetric multidimensional scaling, NMS, agree that dunes

The AA. examine both the cyclic and SO effects on precipitation and stream flow in Georgia with a view to better understanding the vagaries of hydrological conditions. To achieve these objectives, stream discharge at 10 U.S. Geological Survey stream
gaging sites in Georgia, and precipitation at 13 nearby climate stations are examined for the 57 water years (October to September) from 1938 to 1994, and SO characteristics from 1887 to 1994 (98 years). Maximum entropy spectrum analysis (MESA) is used

The relationship between climate and tree-growth for loblolly pine in north Georgia is investigated by : 1) determining during which months climate has its strongest impact on loblolly pine growth, and 2) specifically examining the relationship
