Neotectonics and Quaternary geology of the Hunter Mountain fault zone and Saline Valley region, southeastern California
The AA. present surficial geologic maps of 5 sections along the Hunter Mountain fault zone. The map observations are then used to place loose bounds on the paleoearthquake history and fault slip rate in late Quaternary time, as well as the role
Stud farming in the HunterValley: expansion and restructuring in the equine industry
Focusing on this valley of New South Wales, it is suggested that horse breeding has been a target for capital investment by entrepreneurs seeking to maximise returns on profits derived from other economic sectors. The role of favourable taxation

Authors examine the uses of mountain commons in two villages in the manali area, Kulu Valley, Himachal Pradesh, India. Land settlement of 1886 provided local people with well defined resource rights and some local control over two resource areas
Radiocarbon chronology of a tephra layer in Rio Traful valley, province of Neuquén, Argentina in Quaternary of South America Antarctic peninsula. Volume 1.
The tephra deposition took place between 2780 40 C yr B.P. and 6030 115 C yr B.P.| an age closer to 3000 yr B.P. is favoured. The effect of the ashfall on the environmental conditions in which the prehistoric hunters of the area were living
is discussed. A correlation among three localities in the Rio Traful Valley is proposed. Some paleoclimatic inferences are made for post-tephra depositional times. (From the Author's abstract).

The origin of certain wide valleys in the Canary Islands
Canary Islands ; Geomorphology ; Inverted relief ; Lava flow ; Model ; Valley ; Volcanism
The present work addresses a long-term controversy concerning the origin of Orotava Valley, one of the most peculiar valleys in the Island of Tenerife. Analysis of the key features of Orotava Valley leads to formulation of an hypothesis which could
be applicable to numerous volcanic areas. Such valleys are developed as volcanic valleys undergo lateral expansion due to repeated alternations of processes: initial erosion of the gorges by streams, the burial of the gorges by lava flows, and the inversion
of the relief by erosion at the base of valley walls.
The post to late glacial valley reconstruction on the Haramosh north side (Mani, Baska and Phuparash valleys)
Asia ; Glacial features ; Glacial valley ; Karokoram ; Lateral moraine ; Palaeo-environment ; Postglacial
The history of the landscape of the Haramosh valley is linked with the former glaciation history of the Indus Valley. The extent of the former glaciers Mani, Baska and Phuparash according to their glacio-geomorphic position, their snow line
depression and relative age classification, using the method of Kuhle, is reported in this article. A high glacial ice filling of the Haramosh valley and glacial erosion of the flat top of the Darchan ridge as an intermediate valley head is strongly probable.
A rational explanation of cross-profile morphology for glacial valleys and of glacial valley development
The purpose of this paper is, first to present an explanation of the cross-profile morphology based on the physical process of glacier flow and second to interpret development of the glacial valley cross-profile.
