  • The secession of South Sudan marks a significant milestone in the political evolution of the African continent. The new state has no separate colonial heritage, and hence no recognise boundary, and has been formed as a result of a struggle

  • Article discusses causes and consequences of Quaternary sea-level changes. It describes all major markers of the process, which have been ascertained with isotopic studies and observations of geomorphologic particularities, with special interest

  • markers. The Concud fault is an extensional structure active since the mid Pliocene times. The geomorphic indices, together with qualitative features of the escarpment and piedmont landscape, indicate ‘moderate’ to ‘rapid’ fault activity. The range of slip
  • rates estimated from such morphotectonic classification (0.03 to 0.5 mm/y) encloses the range calculated from offset Late Pliocene and Pleistocene stratigraphic markers (0.07 to 0.33 mm/y). Nevertheless, the highest potential slip rate (0.5 mm/y) clearly

  • of residential burglaries in three police beats comprising two distinct locations of the city, urban and suburban. The results indicate a marked difference in the socioeconomic status of the inhabitants, and the frequency of the crimes between the two areas.

  • role in the origin of certain marks on the surface of sedimentary grains. As a result, studying the features of quartz grain surfaces enables us to determine the possible origin of sediments and landforms. - (EN)

  • by geography teachers as mentors of vocational teacher training,as well as to attempt to find the relationship between the received points given for the development of competences and the assessment performed both in points and marks given by geography students

  • Sartre's philosophical works and political activism is located against the backdrop of a Parisian intellectual life marked by struggles over the future of Marxism. Sartre's desire to contest and rethink metrocentric framings of colonialism

  • and passive grain exchanges throughout most of the bed produce the overall vertical distribution of marked grains. Gravel exchanges exhibit fairly consistent patterns once tracers are well mixed by large floods. Results highlight the role of flood sequence

  • markers used for this study include buried soils, metal tracers from mining operations, and cesium-137. Results are discussed for the period 1830-2010. Apparently, Ozark rivers responded quickly to land disturbance, but recovery has lagged, perhaps due

  • The Pambar River Basin (PRB) lies on the rain shadow region of the southern Western Ghats, India, where climate showed marked intra-basin variation. A morphometric analysis was done to evaluate the drainage characteristics of PRB using topographical

  • Seven sites were selected for measurement of solifluction movement rates and correlation with the local environmental factors. Positions of movement markers and the terrain were recorded and the grid areas were digitally reconstructed. This allowed

  • Holocene age of the studied horizontal ice-wedge profiles and indicate syngenetic growth associated with sediment accumulation. A general Late Holocene winter warming trend is inferred from andO 18 data with periods of marked variability superimposed

  • Tianshan Mountains, both the temperature and precipitation display a marked increasing tendency from 1960 to 2009. The temperature in the dry seasons (from November to March) increases rapidly but the precipitation grows slowly while the results are inverse

  • different slope units and in 2 catchments affected by different wildfire severities. Measurements were made seasonally for 6 years. Rates varied substantially according to slope unit, showing a marked maximum for both ant mounding and total bioturbation

  • The Monegros region is marked by the occurrence of a large number of ephemeral to dry lake basins, occupying small karstic depressions. The lacustrine sediment fill of these basins contain various carbonate and silicate minerals whose origin

  • temporal and spatial resolution in the jump flow. A comparison between the stationary hydraulic jump, hydraulic jump in translation and decelerating surge measurements showed some marked differences in terms of turbulent mixing. The results highlighted some

  • the study area. The biotic-abiotic threshold also marks the precipitation rate below which bedrock erosion rates are no longer a function of soil thickness. This work shows that hillslope processes become sensitive to precipitation as life disappears
