Turf-banked lobes and terraces on the valley slopes and stone-banked or non-sorted lobes at summits show a distinct regional trend of decreasing size from west to east in the Abisko region. Significant correlations with environmental parameters
exist between morphometry and elevation, soil moisture and soil texture. At a regional scale, high soil moisture environments can be associated with larger dimensions. The turf-banked forms in the valleys are associated with deep seasonal snow cover

loops, two were chute cuoffs in which significant bend curvature remained. All were the terminal result of progressive bank erosion and/or scour of the floodplain rather than overflow and all took place in peak flow events. rates of change in all
This paper analyses the development of Jewish settlement in Judea and Samaria (the WestBank). Evolution of a new settlement type, the Yishuv Kehillati (Community Village). At the micro level, the Yishuv Kehillati is shown to reflect a negation
The quest for water resources by Zionist leaders started in the early years of the zionist movement. This quest has been independent of the political status of the territory of Palestine and it became crucial after the 1967 occupation of the West
For monitoring the movements, 2 geodetic test sites were established on the high loess bank of the river Danube at Dunaföldvár and Dunaszekcsõ in Hungary. The recorded daily tilt amplitudes were compared with the precipitation and the potential
into the deep soil layers and so the moistening of the high bank can be significantly diminished by planting appropriate vegetation on slopes.
The two experimental irrigation plots were each located in the WestBank Mountains close to Ramallah. Results of the irrigation experiments showed that precipitation-induced runoff from rock outcrops continued below ground as preferential flow along
Deregulation in the American banking industry has led to well established banks moving to cities in other states. One result is an increase in the geographic concentration of banking resources control. - (D. W. Gade).
The banking system, banking organizations, bank's credit potential and basic indicators of business transacted 1978-1983 (liabilities and assets), basic problems and directions of change.

Interactions between human activity, volcanic eruptions and vegetation during the Holocene at Garua and Numundo, West New Britain, PNG
This paper reviews fossil phytolith analysis from wet tropical West New Britain (Papua New Guinea). The Holocene vegetation has been influenced by spatially and temporally diverse patterns of both prehistoric human settlement and catastrophic
volcanic events. The AA. have hypothesized different landscape responses and recovery pathways to event during the last 6 millenia. Vegetation responded differently from one event to another, reflecting both forest recovery from seed bank and shooting
Concentration and dispersion in the banking system of the Cape Colony, 1837-1900
Large enterprises have long dominated the South African economy, among them the major banks. Between 1837 and 1900 London based banks secured control of the banking sector, eliminating local banks and establishing branches throughout the Cape colony

A method for the analysis of spatial variation in the relations between bank erosion and its controlling factors is presented that incorporates non-stationary parameters and categorical data. This method is termed geographically weighted logistic
regression (GWLR). The objective of this paper is to apply GWLR to model the spatial variation in the relation between erosion (presence or absence) and several controlling variables for the Afon Dyfi in West Wales. The practical implication of the result
The Mladotice lake is the four largest and also the youngest lake in the country. It is located on the Mladotice stream, the left bank tributary of the Střela River in the west Bohemia. Extreme rains in May 1872 and the construction of the railway
