To better understand pool geometry and sorting characteristics of NewEngland channels, characterizations of pool geometry were performed on 145 different pools strongly influenced by channel constrictions. The results suggest that pool dimensions
fonte et l'apport d'eau. Exemples choisis dans les états américains du New Hampshire, du Massachusetts, de Rhode Island, du Connecticut, de Vermont et du Maine. (J. P. Besancenot).
A partir de l'analyse pollinique et de l'étude des macrofossiles végétaux de six sites, à différentes altitudes dans les White Mountains du New Hampshire, on déduit qu'entre 9000 et 5000 ans B. P. la température moyenne annuelle était de 2C

The landscapes of northern NewEngland and adjacent areas of Canada changed greatly between 14,000 and 9000 yr BP: deglaciation occured, sea levels and shorelines shifted, and a vegetational transition from tundra to closed forest took place. Data

Lead-210 methods have been used to establish a chronology of sedimentation extending back almost 80 years in Black Mountain Lagoon near Guyra on the NewEngland Tablelands of north-eastern New South Wales. The sediments in the lake record an episode
A new technique for field measurement of soil creep displacement profiles in Erosion budgets and their hydrologic basis.

This new technique has been designed to produce a profile of displacement within the soil without any excavation, by using a set of plastic blocks emplaced within the soil at different depths as markers. The technique was tested in a pilot study
, and has been employed in the field for eighteen months in Upper Weardale, northern England.

for thirteen river basins in Vermont, New Hampshire, and Massachussetts. Within each basin, higher temperatures and lower snowfall result in a more uniform distribution of flow throughout the season. This relationship is also observed across the region's
A new system of horizon notation for New Zealand soils based on that used in England and Wales is outlined. Like the latter, it gives specific definitions of the letter combinations used to label the most commonly occurring horizons, but it differs
in providing more additional suffixes to designate supplementary properties. Other major changes and new concepts, that give the system a separate identify, are enumerated.

The paper is a review of some of the problems associated with modelling the relationship between improvements in infrastructure and regional economic growth in the context of the attraction of new inward investment. An illustration of northeast
England is used to argue that it is increasingly untenable to regard infrastructure as an independent variable influencing the regional distribution of mobile investment.
