This study provides a clearer understanding of hydrological and sedimentological processes and mechanisms operating during jökulhlaups (glacial outburst floods), and helps to identify flood hazards more accurately, which is fundamental for hazard
The geological method, the AMS to be presented in this paper has been applied to solve the problem of the direction of transportation in sedimentology since 1960. The redeposited and the wind blown loess can be distinguished by statistical analysis

In this paper, the main focus is on the part of the hummocky landscape situated above 200 m a.s.l., called the central hummocky area. The morphological and sedimentological observations in the area, and their implications for the understanding

-sedimentological reconstruction is evaluated with suggestions for possible forming mechanisms of the post-flood morphology, its relaxation storage time and stability.
Geomorphological and sedimentological evidence of former glaciation in the Bizzle valley in the Cheviot Hills of northern England and southern Scotland was used to reconstruct the dimensions of a small topographically constrained glacier

Optical dating, sedimentological analysis and soil profile development have been used to develop a chronology for, and an understanding of, the geomorphic evolution of the Holocene coastal plain between Otaki and Te Horo, North Island of New zealand

This paper presents geomorphological and sedimentological evidence for 3 large-scale floods to the west of the ice-capped volcano Katla around the time of Norse settlement or Landnám (AD 870-930). These glacial outburst floods (jökulhlaups
In this study, the lithofacies of the Homeb sites were reexamined and the sedimentological processes that resulted in their deposition reassessed. The AA. also provide new chronologic data including a comparison of the precision of the single
This study integrates data from sedimentology, stratigraphy, and process geomorphology, with additional information from prior work on structure, petrology, and tectonics in the fault zone. The AA. propose a hypothesis for geomorphic evolution
In this study, the palaeoclimatic information preserved in the Chagelebulu stratigraphic profile was recovered using stratigraphical, sedimentological, geomorphological and petrographical methods; based on this information the paleomonsoon
