) drainage anomalies. The results have been checked in the field and compared with the tectonic features in the mountainous areas. The extension of these structures could then be traced confidently further towards the flat lowlands.

chronologies of flow system water-level fluctuations, hydrochemistry, a half-million-yr proxy paleoclimate record, evidence of Devis Hole's tectonic origin, and probably atmospheric circulation.
Detailed geomorphological analysis of the relief forms in the presumed inundation area of the Krkavec dam on the Nežárka river in South Bohemia. Geological and tectonic characteristics, fluvial, eolian, gravitational, organogenic and antropogenic
a polygenesis of the weathering mantle during the Tertiary, due to descending groundwater tables caused by the beginning tectonic uplift of the Rhenish Massif and drier climatic periods during the Middle Tertiary. Periglacial processes during the Pleistocene led

to have been created through headward knickpoint migration. The location of these features depends in part on lithologic variability and tectonic uplift as they influence channel morphology and gradient, which in turn influence hydraulics and sediment

A long-term approach based on detailed mapping and lichenometry provides additional information concerning talus-foot rock glaciers overstepping raised beaches in Svalbard. Their regional distribution is primarily controlled by the tectonic pattern
area of Jezeří Castle. Indicated are the types and regime of these movements which are climatic, tectonic and anthropogenous in origin. Both slightly and strongly deformed zones in the near-surface part of crystalline rocks massif were formed

to the evolution of etch forms, exploits magmatic, thermal, tectonic and sedimentary bedrock features at various scales, and of greater or lesser antiquity. It is more accurate and appropriate to view etchforms as complex and multistage features, some of which have
The aim of this study is to provide basic data on the geological structure of Kuwait, revealed through morphostructural analysis. Analysis of geomorphic data in relation to the geological, structural and tectonic evolution has resulted
There are two types of processes active in the formation of a landscape at the same time: the endogenic (tectonic) and the exogenic (climate-driven) processes. These two types of processes may more or less balance each other, in which case
