Pleistocene stratigraphy, paleopedology, and paleoecology of a multiple till sequence exposed on the Little Bear River, Western District of Mackenzie, N.W.T., Canada
La coupe de Little Bear River est localisée dans une zone de transition entre la plaine du Mackenzie et les Canyons Ranges des monts Mackenzie. L'extension maximale de l'inlandsis laurentidien y chevauche l'extension plus ancienne des glaciers de

activity occurred during the 19th century, after the peak of the Little Ice Age. Close agreement between the records of snow avalanches and debris flows suggests that both reflect periods of high winter snowfall and rapid spring melting rather than low
As a consequence of the Cold War, certain regions and sectors of the US economy are now dependent on military spending. At the state level, there is a large degree of locational persistence. At the county scale, there is little correspondence
service firms and regional offices of large companies, followed by a few corporate head offices. There is little attempt to place the findings within a conceptual framework: the A. reviews some models.
The government has launched a privatization program with the aim of creating a housing market in place of administrative allocation. The goals of the reformers are narrow, and the reforms yield little and contradictory private-ownership laws. In St
Petersburg, a short-lived privatization program collapsed in early 1993. Number of questions are asked: what is behind the privatization program, what forces are pushing for reforms, who opposes them and will privatization relieve the housing crisis?
The previous administrative new-car distribution system, which operated instead of a real car market, had always given preference to Budapest and after to county towns. Even with the economic changes, the structure remains little changed
of long-term management the present channel debris may be as little as 7 % of the total net load that could have been present if no management had occurred.
Study of the traditional land use between 3 000 and 4 000 m in the Cordillera de Mérida around Gavidia. Peasant farming here is ecologically sustainable with recuperating fallows, little erosion and high diversity, but it is now obsolete. Even
Etude des formes de relâchement de contrainte dans la roche en place, sur l'île Manitoulin. Les couches généralement horizontales révèlent des indices de relâchement de contrainte dans la roche par l'entremise des failles à Little Current et des
This article reviews what little is known of the boundary layer and surficial controls on aeolian activity in contemporary cold humid settings. Field and simulation work on the boundary layer and surface controls, which include wind shear velocity
This paper describes changes in channel geometry on a little-studied reach of the Rio Grande, in which flow has been depleted by upstream water control and diversion systems. Initial shrinking of the channel produced positive feedback
deposits (fluvioglacial terraces, screes, alluvial fans). Likewise, other glacial deposits are cited, belonging to retreat phases. A phase of altitude glaciers, other of cirque glaciers and the Little Ice Age can be distinguished. - (AAG)
The local road connecting has an important meaning for the survival and development of the little Adriatic islands. Some of realised road connections between the main points of these islands signify the importance of such a kind of traffic
