Authors investigate the vertical and horizontalmovements of ground water for a longer time period in the Tokaj wine growing area (NE-Hungary). This knowledge may help in tracing the way of pollutants in the ground water, and many contribute
. The different raised erosional features indicate independent vertical tectonic movement of the three islands, predating the formation of the raised reef. The accordance and horizontality of the raised reef indicates stability of the islands, since the last
Instrumental surveys of coastal profiles in the Cayman Islands, western Caribbean, reveal the presence of a horizontal erosional bench at + 1.9 m on Grand Cayman and a deep horizontal notch at + 6,4 m on Cayman Brac, but no raised erosional features
on Little Cayman. Each island is surrounded by a horizontal constructional raised reef, usually below + 2 m, here dated by U-series methods as 124,000 8000 yr old, and hence broadly contemporary with other western Atlantic raised reefs of similar elevations

Horizontal ground displacement associated with the 1995 Kobe earthquake reflects the developmental process of a block mountain under tectonic E-W compression. The focal mechanism of the earthquake is of the strike-slip type. Surface faults specify

their spatial and temporal distribution as well as the magnitude of the vertical and horizontal ground displacements. After field validation of the detected movements, they finally discuss their controlling factors. While most movements were triggered by intense
The aim of this study is to better understand the current activity of the landslides in the Flemish Ardennes. Based on accurate multi-temporal digital terrain models (DTMs), the AA. map first the areas of ground movement, then they analyse

To isolate the influence of sampling-surface orientation on the macrofabric of periglacial colluvial deposits, clast orientation measurements were obtained from 7 paired horizontal and vertical exposures in turf-banked solifluction lobes on Niwot
Ridge, Colorado Front Range. Fabrics obtained from vertical faces were stronger than those from horizontal exposures in 6 of the pairs. Near-horizontal sampling surfaces yield less biased results than vertical exposures, owing to operator perceptions
Sediment travel distance as an experimental and model variable in particulate movement

In this paper travel distance will be used to refer to horizontal distances. A particle movement such as rainsplash or fluvial bedload transport shows at least the potential for variations in travel distance with grain size. Experimental data also
show a considerable dispersion in the travel distances within each grain size class. This behaviour also contrasts strongly with that for a mass movement. Transporting capacity cannot generally be measured directly, but must be derived from

The frequency distribution of the general wind at Valkenburg is analysed and combined with the horizontal wind velocity pattern within blowouts. A simulation model, producing the spatial distribution of the wind power shows that the prevalence
of algal crusts at the SW side of blowouts agrees well with the location which reaches the lower wind power values. In other parts of the blowouts algal crusts are damaged by moving sand at times of high wind velocity.
Secular horizontal strain of the crust in eastern Taiwan is investigated based on retriangulation data. The strain along the Longitudinal Valley, a probable plate boundary of the Philippine Sea and the Eurasian plate, is compressive, with a large
rate of 2 to 3 microstrains per year, and the maximum compression axis intersects the valley with an angle of about 60. This suggests that the valley is not a place of pure collision, and that the relative movement of the plates has a left-lateral
