Discussion of simultaneous measurement of storm rainfall and resulting runoff during individual storms made in small basins in the San Francisco Bay Area, California, over a period of ten years. Using lag time relations, synthetic hydrograph
Lithology, through its influence on sediment production, may have an important effect on the size of alluvial fans and, hence, on fan-basin morphometric relations. The purpose of this study is to evaluate the influence of lithologic erodibility
on the relation between alluvial fan area and drainage basin area.
The goals of this study are to characterize soil development in the southern Great Basin in locations with dated Quaternary surfaces, to estimate rates of soil development in such locations, and to evaluate the potential and the limitations of using

The present paper deals with a comparative study of three catchments in a hilly environment, to gain further information on high-stage discharges and sediment transport dynamics on a small-basin scale, as well to assess relationships between
Le Césium-137 est un bon moyen d'étude de l'érosion, lorsqu'on l'associe à l'analyse des éléments du relief et au bilan sédimentaire. Par l'application de la technique 137Cs à un bassin partiellement fermé et cultivé dans le Saskatchewan/Canada
This article concentrates on an analysis of the distribution of hurricanes in the Caribbean basin, investigates some of statistical characteristics, and attempts a coupling of these events with known anomalous periods in the world's climatic history.
From a small drainage basin located in Central Italy, relevant geological and geomorphological factors were collected and processed by applying GIS technology. In particular, modules were used which both generate high-fidelity digital terrain models
-Kamchatka and Japan trenches. It was noted that dynamic stability condition in bottom layers of these trenches vary within tidal cycle. Interest to the problem of water stability in deep-sea basins was stimulated by discussion on possibility to bury
Dans les pays tropicaux marqués par une longue saison sèche, le développement économique est tributaire d'une bonne gestion de l'eau. Il est indispensable de bien connaître les ressources et leur répartition entre les divers bassins versants et de
