techniques play a major role. This paper therefore highlights and evaluates recent advances and capabilities specific to optical remote sensing of rivers. Example for the Nueces River, Texas.
The distributions of sediment properties including grain size, specific gravity and Cu and Fe concentrations for these phases are presented through a succession of three distinct periods or phases over a five years period: meandering channel phase
larger foraminifers,deep water agglutinated foraminifers (DWAF) and bathyal hyaline foraminifers. Upsection the specific diversity tends to decrease, whereas the quartz supply increases and assemblages become exclusively constituted by agglutinated DWAF
with predominant tubular suspension feeding taxa. In three samples few, badly preserved and displaced gastropods were recognized. The Gratteri Formation deposited during the late Rupelian in a basin periodically affected by gravitative and turbiditic flows, which
Correlating specific conductivity with total hardness in gypsum karst waters
The aim of this paper is to evaluate how adequately simple specific electrical conductivity measurements in the field may be used to estimate amounts of dissolved gypsum and total disolved solids in gypsum karst areas. To illustrate the foreign ion
A high density of settlement (150 inh./km) is a further specific characteristics connected with strongly industrial character of the region. High level of urbanization has accelerated due to demographic transformation and centralization of housing
Critical specific stream power in gravel-bed rivers
Experiments with marked pebbles were carried out on different sized rivers of the Belgian Ardenne (catchment areas varying from less than 1 km2 to 2700 km2). Specific stream power required to cause bedload movement was evaluated and critical values
were obtained. Three types of relationship between critical specific stream power and grain size were established.
Location-specific cumulative distribution function (LSCDF) : an alternative to spatial correlation analysis
The paper presents an approach for spatial correlation analysis for count variables by comparing their cumulative spatial distributions. Using the concept of LSCDF in classical statistics, it shows that location-specific and its associated K-S-like
who are the prime actors in world city network formation. This process is formally specified in terms of four international relational matrices. Through this specification it becomes possible to apply standard techniques of network analysis to world
This article presents research designed to investigate map use. Specifically, we interrogate the long-held assumption that people use maps for specific purposes and in specific ways and those purposes and ways differ from other types of graphics
Zur aufgabenspezifischen kartographischen Modellierung in der Territorialplanung, dargestellt an der Aufgabenstellung Standortverteilung der Produktivkräfte. (Problem-specific cartographical modelling in territorial planning, described
The function of the map is the main determinant of map design. With example of the problem of the distribution of stations of production forces the author illustrated a problem-specific determination of the function of thematic maps and the co
