Three catchments in the eastern Rhenish Slate Mountains have been studied : the Aar Valley of the northern Taunus foreland, the Wisper Valley of the western Taunus Mountains, and the Nister Valley of the High Westerwald Mountains. Most

ecosystem restoration and management. Forty-three plots were selected for the field survey of the vegetation, soil and topography variables in the dry warm river valley of the upper Minjiang River, Sichuan Province, China. Cluster analysis demonstrated
on the Eastern Pohorje. Explained through the recent tectonic shifting, established by means of GPS in the years 1996-2002 at the peak Velika Kopa, is the southeastwards curving of the five valleys above the Legen terrace where, supposedly, original headwaters
curving of the valleys on the northern slope of the Pohorje, and their northeastward orientation in the Ribnica-Lovrenc-Selnica valley system. In the east section of the Lovrenc valley system above Fala the brook Rečnikov potok has not adjusted its course
to the recent tectonic subsiding, so that its valleys run obliquely to the slope inclination. The up to 700 metres deep Mislinja rift lowered the central ridge of the Pohorje to 1299 metres. Blowing intensely across it, the northeastern Pleistocene cold winds
and ploughing boulder processes, have been conducted at 25 sites distributed across : the Jalovecká Valley in the Western Tatra Mts of Slovakia, as well as the source area of the Predné Međodoly and Zadné Međodoly Valleys in the Belianske Tatry. The results have
The plateau areas of the Kashubian Coastland are characterised by the occurrence of isolated patches (isolated morainic plateaux) separated by valley or ice marginal streamway lowerings. Their land relief is diversifi ed by valleys presently used

This paper studies the variation of runoff of Red River Basin and discusses the influence of corridor-barrier functions of valleys and mountains on variation of runoff by using GIS and statistic methods based on the monthly precipitation

The aims of this paper were to determine how soil properties that affect erodibility vary between slope position and drainage class for a hydrosequence of soils developed in loess deposits of the lower Mississippi River Valley. Soil samples were
The AA. present some examples of the influence of climate and climate anomalies on the alpine environment in the Ortles-Cevedale Group, OCG, focusing on the different responses of Norway spruce tree-ring growth from one OCG valley (the Trafoi Valley

Fluvial sediments in the Vltava, Berounka, Sázava and Labe valleys are preserved as extensive river terrace sequences. These accumulation terraces originated from an interaction of climate-morphogenetic and neotectonic processes in the late Cenozoic
This article deals with the reconstruction of the dam breach of the Blažnov pond and consequent flood wave progress in the riverbed of the small brook. The flood wave progressed through the brook valley with the length of 0.7 km. For the modelling
