using the local petty pirates. Southeast-Asia. Fears of maritime muslim terrorists attacks have also risen. However poverty is not a major reason to take on pirating. The crucial factors are opportunity, the negligible costs of piracy for the world
Long-term control mechanisms of stream piracy processes in Southeast Spain
This paper is mainly concerned with the processes involved in the transformation of a basin from endorheic to exorheic as a result of fluvial piracy in an area of southeast Spain. The analytical method applied consisted in comparison of the drainage
Fifteen physical experiments on a stream table replicated four general mechanisms proposed to explain transverse drainage development, namely antecedence, superimposition, overflow, and piracy. The experimental design encompassed multiple strategies
and depositional field criteria associated with anrtecedence, overflow, and piracy.
There exist two systems of valleys. The subsequent system, based on a flat central ridge, disturbed the older, more extensive net of consequent valleys by numerous piracies. This development took place mainly during the Pleistocene. - (MS)
for the opening of the Plio-Quaternary Strait of Gibraltar. The strait of Gibraltar results from the work of a stream, which managed water-piracy from an Ocean.
the Quaternary new slopes were formed as the highland due to volcanic processes, erosion of antecedent valleys and river piracy, glacial processes (slopes of cirques, troughs and morainic hills). Climatic change controlled the type and rate of slope processes
