Evidence of transient topographic disequilibrium in a landward passive margin river system : knickpoints and paleo-landscapes of the New River basin, southern Appalachians
The AA. use focused topographic analysis of the upper New River basin to delineate a perched, low-relief paleo-landscape that is experiencing transgressive dissection due to incision by the New River and its tributaries. Accelerated incision has
-landscape developed during the Teays era to adjust to the modern drainage pattern. The upper New River may therefore represent the potential for glacially-driven drainage rearrangement to drive transient topographic evolution hundreds of kilometers away from
Rubber plantation and its relationship with topographical factors in the border region of China, Laos and Myanmar
The AA. examine the rubber plantation and its relationship with topographical factors in the border region of China, Laos and Myanmar. They show that for the period of time study, it expanded further in all directions with Jinghong City
large appropriate topographical gradients for rubber plantation in Laos and Myanmar which benefited China for rubber trans-boundary expansion.

This essay examines the Column reliefs as embedded in wider topographical and geographical traditions during Trajan's reign and in Roman antiquity, and proposes some new avenues for understanding the reliefs in these terms.
Critical topographic threshold of gully erosion in Yuanmou Dry-hot Valley in Southwestern China
This study investigated gully morphology and the critical topographic threshold of permanent gullies in Yuanmou Dry-hot Valley. Data for 36 gully heads were derived from the gully digital elevation model created by high-precision real-time kinematic
Documenting glacial changes between 1910, 1970, 1992 and 2010 in the Turgen Mountains, Mongolian Altai, using repeat photographs, topographic maps, and satellite imagery
The Turgen Mountains lie in northwestern Mongolia, roughly 80 km south of the Russian border. Analyses of field data, repeated photographs from 1910 and 2010, topographic maps from 1970, and satellite imagery from 1992 and 2010 were used to describe
Topographic swath profile analysis : a generalization and sensitivity evaluation of a digital terrain analysis tool
Alpine Foothills. This analysis helped to identify topographic rims, tilted remnant surfaces and fluvial incision within the study area, even where these features are obscured by the dissected topography. Using this area as an example, sensitivity
Range imaging : a new method for high-resolution topographic measurements in small- and medium-scale field sites
), allowing for the interpolation of a digital elevation model on a 2 cm grid. Comparison with an elevation model obtained from terrestrial laser scanning for the same site revealed that both models show similar degrees of topographic detail.
In the study areas of the Kapos floodplain (SW Hungary) topographic, remote sensing and soil distribution surveys were jointly applied to assess the true extent of frequent inundation hazard. - (AM)
fault in western Pakistan. Topographic analysis of a part of the transpression (the thrust bounded Roghani ridge) revealed northward growth of the Spinatizha fault. Geomorphic indices including stream length-gradient index, mountain front sinuosity
the Spinatizha fault was defined using topographic analysis of the Roghani ridge and geomorphic mapping of an impressive alluvial fan, the Bostankaul fan.

the topographic and textural response of the bed to increased sediment supply. The spatial patterns of bed topography and texture were forced by the flume setup and the initial and final steady states included long stationary alternate bars with associated grain
Presented here are the means of generating and possibilities for applying a digital map of sequences of forest/non-forest states in a study area, as based on topographic maps for 7 instances in time (between 1800 and the present day). There is also

for prediction of soil wet aggregate stability (as quantified by the mean weight diameter, MWD) in a highly mountainous watershed (Bazoft watershed, southwestern Iran). Three different sets of available data including soil properties alone, topographic attributes
and vegetation index, and a combination of soil properties and topographic and vegetation attributes were used as inputs. Discussions of advantages and disadvantages are given in different point of view for all the methods. In conclusion, the ANN and ANFIS models
Bedrock river profiles are often interpreted with the aid of slope-area analysis, but noisy topographic data make such interpretations challenging. The AA. present an alternative approach based on an integration of the steady-state form
with analyses of river profiles extracted from digital topographic datasets.

The AA. focus on geomorphology and geomorphic variability in the Mylliem granite, one of many igneous bodies within the basement complex of the Meghalaya Plateau. Relict flat watershed ridges and topographic basins characterize the northern
