Spring sapping origin of the enigmatic relict valleys of Cape Cod and Martha's Vineyard and Nantucket Islands, Massachussetts
Steep-sided, flat-floored linear valleyys that lack well developed tributaries and end in amphitheater-like heads are eroded on the outwash plains of Cape Cod, Martha's Vineyard and Nantucket Island. Their distribution and morphology lead to propose
Wingerdidentifikasie in Suidwes-Kaapland met behulp van Landsat digitale beeldverwerking Vineyard identification in the Southwestern Cape using Landsat digital image processing
An investigation into the influence of terrain, morphology and agricultural practices on Landsat identification of vineyards. The results suggest more information is needed for worthwhile results.- (AJC)
A vineyard survey was carried out in this region (Laonnois, France) on a representative hillslope in early Spring 1987 in order to obtain results refering to the vineyards and erosion; this test parcel was already a vineyard in the past
. The experimental study proves that the vineyard in this region is less destructive considering soil degradation, compared to other cultivations, but only in conditions of traditionalist cultivations. The effects are probably different with intensive cultivation
Determination of long-term erosion rates in vineyards of Navarre (Spain) using botanical benchmarks
In the region of Navarre, 7 rain-fed vineyards of different ages (between 22 and 61 years old) were selected as experimental plots. The proposed approach used a botanical signal, grafting callus, and determined the topographic changes caused
by the erosion processes in these fields. This innovative way of determining overall rates of soil surface changes in grafted vineyards appears to be a promising method to estimate long-term erosion/sedimentation rates not only in vines but also in other crops
Soil surface infiltration capacity classification based on the bi-directional reflectance distribution function sampled by aerial photographs. The case of vineyards in a Mediterranean area
The AA. propose a remote sensing based method to map vineyard soil surface features with a spatial and temporal resolution appropriate for integration into the model. The aim was to classify each soil surface portion in accordance with a pre
-established, field measured infiltration capacity based typology. The radiometric characteristics of the classes of this typology were measured in the field and their Bi-directional Reflectance Distribution Function (BRDF) was modelled. Vineyard sunlit soil

of high quality and registered place of origin are the following : it ranges over the administrative borders of several settlements; all parts of the area share the same climate ; configuration of terrain and type of soil ; all parts of the area have
the same types of vine and cultivation method; all parts of the area have similar wine-growing traditions ; it produces wines specific to the area ; the proportion of vineyards is at least 7% in each settlement of the area. The study gives an historical
