Multi-phase geomorphological evolution of the Keszthely Mountains (SW-Transdanubia) and karstic recharge of the Hévíz lake
Geomorphology and changing environments in Central Europe
in the hydrogeological system of the Hévíz lake. The paleogeographical reconstruction was based on large-scale geological models. A special attention was paid to the geomorphological control on sedimentation and karstification. The consequences of differential erosion
The structure and geomorphology of the Dashgil mud volcano, Azerbaijan
The large-scale and small-scale structure and geomorphology of the active Dashgil mud volcano in central Azerbaijan, have been studied. Through historical records it is known that this mud volcano has major eruptions every 6-32 years. The activity
of the mud volcano and the processes responsible for the observed Dashgil geomorphology are discussed. The natural contribution of atmospheric greenhouse gases from the world's mud volcanoes is highly significant.
Geomorphology and sedimentary record of three cuspate forelands as indicators of Late Holocene relative sea-level changes, Disko, West Greenland
C 14 dating ; Coastal geomorphology ; Core sampling ; Glacial isostasy ; Grain size distribution ; Greenland ; Holocene ; Intertidal zone ; Lagoon ; Quaternary ; Salt marsh ; Sea level ; Stratigraphy ; Vertical movement
The purpose of this investigation is to reconstruct the trend of the early-middle Holocene emergence of western Disko and to point out possible transgression phases during late Holocene. The geomorphology of 3 cuspate forelands at Saqqarliit
The geologic and biologic diversity, multiphase tectonics and special geomorphologic phenomena formed the Protected Landscape Region Železné hory (Ferrons Mts.). Changes of river and valley network, attractive local relief and geoenvironmental

This paper presents an up-to-date digital map of a classic British coastal landform, Blakeney Point in north Norfolk, and argues for the wider use of readily available, PC-based graphics software in geomorphological cartography.
Soils and climatic geomorphology on the Karnataka Plateau, peninsular India
of the Karnataka Plateau. In the light of these interpretations, some tenets of climatic and general geomorphology in the Tropics, which have become engrained in the literature, are revisited.

the sedimentology and geomorphology of the spit and of the tidal flat behind it (Spurn Bight), and assesses the effects of coastal defences on the nearshore dynamics. The geomorphology and sedimentology of the beaches and the tidal flat were studied to assess
Through the interpretation of sedimentological, geomorphological, paleoclimatic and tectonic information the geomorphic evolution of the Transdanubian Mountains from the Cretaceous to the Quaternary is presented. Several sedimentary cycles occurred
Recent aeolian origin of surficial gypsum crusts in southern Tunisia : geomorphological, archaeological and remote sensing evidence
This paper provides new evidence on both the mode of formation and the age of surficial gypsum crusts by studying archaeological, remote sensing and geomorphological evidence from surficial gypsum deposits in the Chott Fedjaj basin and northern part
The influence of a large anthropogenic sediment source on the fluvial geomorphology of the Knabeåna-Kvina rivers, Norway
This study describes the fluvial geomorphology along the Knabeåna-kvina rivers downstream of the Knaben Molybdenum Mines, Southern Norway. Special attention is paid to the changes caused by introduction of tailings with elevated molybdenum

of observation used by Linnaeus and his traveling students was clearly within the man-land tradition of geography, and it significantly advanced knowledge not only of plant classification, but also of agriculture, minerals, geology, geomorphology and folk culture
Geomorphology and changing environments in Central Europe
This paper investigates how geomorphological conditions and human activities influence the extent of nitrate contamination of groundwater. An attempt was made to plot a map of nitrate-contamination hazard. The areal distribution of heavy metal
Geomorphology and changing environments in Central Europe
Until recently only geomorphological features and mammal fossils had been known as evidence to the long-debated dry-warm semidesert or hot desert climate in the Carpathian basin following the filling up of the Pannonian Lake. A comparison of samples
This paper considers the palaeoplain and the basal unconformity to be the same surface. It presents a hypothesis for continental passive margins that integrates the geomorphology near the continental boundary with the offshore geomorphology
