Morphogenetic classification of river valleys developing in formerly glaciated areas for the needs of mathematical and physical modelling in hydrotechnical projects
This paper deals with proposals of natural models of river valley evolution useful for physical and mathematical modelling in hydrotechnical projects. Such models are known from investigations of numerous valley reaches of the Wisla (Vistula) River
and the Odra (Oder) River drainage basins. The proposed classification of model types forms an open system that can be supplemented with new types and subtypes, characteristic for other regions of the world.

Lyttelton Volcano, Banks Peninsula, New Zealand : primary volcanic landforms and eruptive centre identification
Banks Island ; Crater ; Dyke ; Erosion ; Geomorphology ; Lava flow ; New Zealand ; South Island ; Volcanism ; Volcano
A detailed study of the geomorphology of Lyttelton Volcano using primary volcanic landforms and the projection of associated orientations is used to identify multiple eruptive centres, and reinterpret the evolution of the volcano, which is now
highly modified by erosion. Individual centres are discussed, highlighting features associated with volcanic cones, such as lava flow dips and strikes, erosional crater rims, valleys, ridges, and radial dyke swarms.
Integrating rural community and expert knowledge through applied participatory rural appraisal in the Kat River Valley, South Africa
Applied rural development research requires new and innovative research methodologies which can yield results of benefit to both the researcher and the community in question. Participatory rural appraisal is advocated as a method which has
the potential to help address socio-economic conditions in rural Africa. A project leading to the improvement in the quality of water supply in a South African rural community is observed. - (AJC)

The article shows some aspects of the temperature climate in a valley and its surroundings at Maze on Finnmarksvidda, where three meteorological observation stations have been in operation since the autumn of 1981. The stations are situated
Modelové projekce obyvatelstva CSSR do roku 2000 pro OSN, 1977. (Projection of the Czechoslovak population up to 2000 for the United Nations Organisation)

A fog forecasting method in a deeply embanked valley

This paper presents a statistical model used to forecast fog in the Meuse valley in Belgium. The method is a bootstrap discriminant analysis using eight predictors : river surface temperature, air pressure, air temperature at two elevations, wind
speed and relative humidity at the same two locations. These data are measured from November 1989 to April 1990. Tests are done to determine the number of resampling needed for this data set and the optimum projection delay for prediction from
