Comparing geophysical methods for talus slope investigations in the Turtmann valley (Swiss Alps)
Three geophysical methods, ground penetrating radar, 2D-resistivity and seismic refraction were applied to two landform complexes in a high-alpine valley of the Valais to investigate their internal structure. Results of the different methods were
analysed separately, before conclusions about sediment thickness and geomorphologic implications were drawn. The combined geophysical investigation produced a detailed image of the subsurface composition of the 2 landform complexes that enhance
Quantitative methods for investigating the variables that underlie preference for landscape scenes

Factors influencing unemployment duration with a special emphasis on migration: an investigation using SIPP data and event history methods
The A. empirically investigates the factors that cause unemployment to be of a longer or shorter duration. They are identified within a micro-economic framework drawn from human capital and job search theories. Event history methods and panel data
A szabadkigyosi puszta talajainak vizsgalata derivatografias és infravoros spektroszkopias modszerrel. (Investigations of the soils of Szabadkigyos puszta by derivatographic and infra-red spectroscopic method)
In Hungary approximatively 600000h are taken up by sodic soils. For the past hundred years a number of specialists have investigated them. This study aims to show that quantitative values /DTG, TG/ obtained by the derivatographic methods can
Preliminary study on land-use investigation and method of mapping.
Land-use investigation serves as one of the basic tasks on examining the land resources, current state of their utilization, and the ways and approaches of rational utilization in the light of the requirements of planning regionally and nationally
. Both traditional geographic methods and new technology will have their parts to play in data capturing. Criteria for land-use classification are discussed and land-use map making and analysis briefly described. (TNC).
The investigation of parameter drift by expanded regressions : generalities, and a family-planning example
Calcul matriciel ; Contrôle des naissances ; Fécondité ; Généralités sur la géographie ; Modernisation ; Méthode d'expansion ; Probabilité ; Statistique ; Système d'équations ; Tiers-Monde
The investigation of parametric drift by expanded regressions is demonstrated by an illustrative example concerned with the effectiveness of family-planning policies on the decline of fertility in the contemporary less-developed countries.
Alakmérési vizsgalatok a Karpatok vulkani vonulatanak egykori kitorési kozpontjain Morphometric investigations on the former eruption centres of the Carpathian volcanic range
This paper reviews the geophysical methods most frequently applied in permafrost research. Advances in application and data interpretation over the past few years are highlighted using case studies (in the Swiss Alps, in the Northern Québec
and in the Mackenzie Delta). Emphasis is put on the tomographic capabilities of geophysical methods. Future prospects are discussed.
