Method of anthropoecological stabilization of landscape and its interpretation
The study deals with the theoretical approach to anthropoecological stabilization of landscape (ASL). It describes a method consisting of four stages including detailed differentiation from the viewpoint of aim, objectives of investigation
Effects of lithology, time and exposure on the stabilization of loess mantled slopes. A comparative study in Loess (INQUA).
The quantitative analysis presented in this paper seems to indicate that lithology, time and slope exposure do have effects on the process of slope stabilization in loess and other young, unconsolidated sediments.
A reflection on population stability and the labor market by people living in Czech border regions
Reflection of the population and the labour market stability, based on a survey in sixteen selected border microregions in whole Czechia. The most often mentioned reasons for not moving were housing, family relations, work and the feeling being here
Improving aggregate stability of sodic sandy loam soils by organics
The objective of this study was to examine at different application rates the effectiveness of some natural and synthetic organics in improving aggregate stability of sodic soils. An attempt has also been made by multi-index approach to select
Effect of freezing and thawing processes on soil aggregate stability
This study aims to determine the effects of freezing and thawing processes on the wet aggregate stability of Turkish soils formed from different parent materials, for different aggregate size groups, soil moisture contents at the time of freezing
Product differentiation and cartel stability : Chamberlin versus Hotelling
The paper contrasts the implications, for cartel stability, of the non-spatial and spatial models of product differentiation. Using the special case of a linear demand framework, the A. shows that whereas the former approach suggests that cartel
stability is non-monotonic but predictable in the degree of differentiation, the outcome is very much more ambiguous when the latter formulation is employed. He also examines the implications for stablility when demand shocks occur.
Stability of clay aggregates as a function of water regimes in Impact of water and external forces on soil structure. Selected papers of the 1st Workshop on soilphysics and soilmechanics, Hannover 1986.
The experiments confirm the results that stability of clay aggregates is not only a matter of water content. Stability of clay aggregates is a function of their water regime, which is the result of the amount of water and the corresponding pressure.
The dynamics of rainsplash erosion and the role of soil aggregate stability
The work of a number of authors is integrated to reveal a sequence of events occurring during rainsplash erosion. The implication of this sequence is that aggregate stability plays a central regulatory role. Using 20 iron rich soils from Mozambique
it is shown that their temporal dynamics as regards splash loss is consistent with this proposed sequence, and that in addition aggregate stability does directly relate to total splash loss over a 50 minute period of rain. By now considering the soil
Stability, morphology and surface grain size patterns of channel bifurcation in gravel-cobble bedded anabranching rivers
, New Brunswick. The stability of channels upstream of bifurcations and the location of bars at bifurcations influence bifurcation stability and the maintenance of river anabranching in the long term.
Quantifying the mechanical and hydrologic effects of riparian vegetation on streambank stability
, clump grasses, and bare/cropped turf grass) on streambank stability. The results demonstrate the importance of hydrologic processes in controlling streambank stability, and highlight the need to select riparian vegetation based on hydrologic as well
